Worrying weave!

Bikermutt:
Many thanks Matt, I will get shut of them sharpish. Any recommendations chaps? I hear good things about the Insta Turbos. Ideally looking for 235/70 R16 tyres to get best on road / off road combo. Thought about taller profiles to increase ground clearance but unsure of stability issues & also I tow a small caravan 3 to 5 times a year.

Range Rover Blues:
Small caravn? go for 235/85 16 with a modest lift.  Lifted springs should be stiffer anyway and if you drive sensibly (the speed limit with a 'van is 60) then you can tow quite safely (though the tyres limit the pulling power a tad).

Been there, done that, caqn assure you it's fine.  I bought BFG muds which are a well made tyre, not the best grip off-road but a good tyre.

Too late again (as usual) but i was going to suggest the tyres, i had a 90 that came with grizzly claws on and swapped them within 2 weeks and same problem solved.

Disco Matt:
Exercise extreme caution with Insa Turbos, I had one blowout within four days of fitting them and another one delaminate within six months. They also lose tyre pressure over time and you need to keep a close eye on them.

Others love them, but I'm after Kumho KL71s next time.
