Mud terrians on road

<< < (2/3) > >>

thermidorthelobster:
How about All Terrains?  They're a compromise, but a good one IMHO.

bobtail4x4:
I have 265/75/16 BFG muds and a 2inch lift, they are not to noisy on the road, but "interesting" if you try to press on when on a wet greasy road.

I find if you drive carefully with regards to the conditions they are fine.

winchman:
Greenway Machos, are very good off road and on, look good on a Disco too.
Whats the point in doing the lift? Your diff will still touch firstand bigger tyres upset the gearing
Leave it standard. fit a good set of tyres and enjoy
This is from some one who had a fully lifted and modded SJ, and now uses a standard Vitara with mud tyres on
If I had the cash I would used Machos again, cheap fab off road, and not bad on road

Jake:
I run a 2" lift and Mud's on a disco
Its a bit rolly in the corners (but then again i have removed the anti roll bars), apart from that its fine
Muds are good on the road as long as you go for a good brand.
BF Goodrich will do the job very well for you.

--- Quote from: "rollazuki" ---Buy a decent set of Mud terrains, and you'll only notice a real difference in the wet.
Dry handling is fine, but a little more care is needed in the wet as they break loose a bit easier.
Dont get extreme tyres(simex/Annaconda type stuff) as they will give poor road handling. Id certainly advise getting mud terrains and realising they may feel a little different, as opposed to getting AT's and wishing you had got mud tyres.



ps dont get road tyres and a spare set of off road tyres. You will NEVER get round to swapping them, and eventually the road tyres will end up on ebay and you will leave the mud tyres on 24/7
