Ran G90s for 18 months, nice tyres off road but ropey on road in the wet, like a lot of off road biased tyres manners on wet tarmac can leave a lot to be desired... Wolves at work are the same.. sure they are what you want??

Cheers Steve

90sam:
Yer cause im only 16, so only going to use my landy off road so just want some cheap off road tyres that are good in the mud, and must be cheap!Not that bothered about road manners just yet  :lol: Any other tyres that would match my criteria??
Cheers

electricbluebadger:
Try Colways, ran em on my lightweight for a couple of years, remoulds so very cheap and wear rates were superb

Cheers Steve

I can verily concur with the  electricbluebadger up there^^^^^^ that G90's are rubbish on tarmac, which isn't a consideration for you.....  But they are also rubbish OFF tarmac when compared to tyres costing far less. (Let me qualify that - they fill with mud very quickly and don't shed very well, the side walls are as weak as rice paper and easily cut, as is the tread area itself - they often have rust bleeding out of insignificant looking tiny cuts that have in fact gone all the way to the plies at the core of the tyre.  The slightest bit of damp/water on them and they spin like [!Expletive Deleted!] - especially when they've worn enough to shed the small grooves on the chevrons.  They are marked up as 'ST' - so they are in fact a Snow/Tarmac tyre for 'light trucks' and not really designed for off-road use at all.)

If you could get hold of some Michellen XZL's they are fab off road but just as good on it as well.  Failing that, I'd go for some colways of any description - cheap and cheerful but bloody good at what they do - perform nearly as well as tyres costing twice the price........
