Mud Tyres
Jim-Willy:
Grizzly is a good offroad tyre, hell on the road though. Anaconda i havn't heard anything much about them but they look like they would be really bad on road and as i remember it the speed rating is too low for anything decent anyway. You thought about the simex copies that are about at the mo? Big tyre for a Disco though.......
See me at the pub meet i have a set of new grizzlys.......

--- Quote from: "ian101" ---Am considering a set of Kumho muds, they are £25 cheaper than the BFG's and from what I gather have good road manners.
Discuss.......... :)

I think the Kumho's come in a more limited set of sizes? I spent ages trying to decide on tyres, especially in an attempt to save money. But eventually, I decided that the extra cost for the BFG MT's was worth it - good performance on and off road, very long lasting, very strong.
ian101:
Where is the best place to pick BFG's up from? Is £100 the going rate? £500 is a hell of a lot of money to fork out at once (and to get past the home office :wink: ) But I guess tyres are not something to be compromised on cos you can't do much if your skating everywhere?

Simex copies are available http://www.paddockspares.com/scp/NEW_PRODUCTS/Insa_Turbo_Special_Track.html but a bit small for what I'm after . . . :lol:
For proper Simex http://www.devon4x4.com/shop.php?mode=productview&product=65&sitelang=&cat=5&subcat=24
Best deal I've been offered,recently, for BFG 12.5/33's was from Mark Sowden at Drighlington, (Sowden Tyres ), he does a few more tyres than than just Colways. Worth ringing him and having a chat :wink:
Been thinking about them 285/85 BFG's again asell . . . . . for when the 265's are worn out . . . . or maybe Simex . . . . and bust a shaft or two :lol:
