Which Mud Terrain Tyres ?

(1/2) > >>

Fat Bloke:
Hi All,
I am ready to buy some mud tyres and have read various reports now on different types and just wanted some general feedback about them please.

I was almost set on grizzly claws or bronco rough riders but have now seen COLWAY M/T's and GREENWAY CHACO's.The main factor is budget as i have dipped into the pot and purchased a procomp 2" lift kit and now only have about £250 left for tyres (x 4) to fit on some 16" steel 8 spokes i have already.Also what do you think about tyre size with the Procomp lift fitted.
Thanks for your co-operation.

Paul:
I've fitted 235x85's on the bobtail, That's on a 2'' lift,
Had to trim the arches and adjust the lockstops..

Very happy and got them for a good price from Nene Valley tyres. :wink:

Was gonna fit Colways to my defender until someone offered me a good deal on nearly new Grizzly's.

Can't fault the grizzly's off road - brilliant grip, no comparison to the previous AT's

But - on road - they must be the noisiest tyres on this earth, slowing down for a junction I keep thinking I've broke mi engine   :?   -  the noise factor is worth noting depending on your use on / off road etc

Mate of mine has Colways on a Zuki, on road noise doesn't seem to be much of an issue, mindyou it probably only weighs about 50kg wet through

I was thinking of these people for Colway's, seemed about the best deal I could find at the time

Tyre prices seem good, my pal got his tyres there, say's good service, dont know if they do wheels though


Hope this helps and don't just confuse you some more

Fat Bloke:
Thanks Dave,
Checked the first site and they are doing 235/85/16 on new rims for £248 which is not bad although i have rims ! suppose i could bang em on ebay.

The 2nd site is worth a look as they are not VAT registered yet so you don't pay any on top. Worked out about £200 for a set of colway MT's delivered !
