For the intermediate i was thinking this...
http://cc.oulu.fi/~thu/LC/Tyres/CommTraction/. i may be getting a set of these when my current trac edges wear out. Normal AT's dont quite cut what i need them to do, but i cant justify full blown muds with the road mileage i do.
Another pos is the cooper ST.

jamesledingham:
What's the on-road to off-road ratio on those?

Xtremeteam:

--- Quote from: "jamesledingham" ---Any recommendations on steel wheels?

Also, what tyres would be recommended? Mostly on-road driving with a bit off off road...maybe advancing to lots of off road!

Is it advisable to use your only vehicle for off roading? Is it just a matter of taking it a bit more easy than you would if you had on especially for off roading?
--- End quote ---


I use my only motor for some serious offroading as Miniman & JW will agree,i aint afraid to push it, :lol: i would recomend a set of BFG muds personally,as i rekon that if you buy AT's it wont be long before your wishing u had bought MT's

jamesledingham:
I suspect my driving is likely to be 90% road, 10% off road though... maybe stretching to 80 20.

I have a 40 mile round trip to work every other day (lift sharing is brilliant - saves a fortune!) and I do a 140 mile round trip every Wednesday and again most weekends (Girlfriend!)

Estimate 20,000 road miles a year...may be pushing it a little! Tyres though will need to suit this!
