Simex Shod Range Rover
ratman:
the noise level is quiet high but you soon get used to it,
i haven't had them long, so haven't done mainy road miles yet
off road well i've had colway MT's, Scorpion MT's and xcl's and the simex leaves them for dead. most of the stuff i've done is mud and they just, as long as you keep momentum, keep digging in and pulling you through.
i bought the simexs for a challenge rangie i'm putting togeather so we started of with what every one else is using and i can see why they do.
money well spent because you will always say "if only i had" if you don't.

Compared to something like a BFG Mud-Terrain, the wear rates will be terrifying. If road work is a consideration, then my advice would be to keep away from the ETs
The JTs aren't quite as bad, but even they will wear quickly on the road.
Off road, as has been mentioned they work very well in a lot of terrains.
ratman:
Have to agree the ware rate is probably high on the Simex but as the challenge car is to be trailered most of the time I expect them last a while.
As I've got another Rangie which I use off road and all day for work I use Colway MT's (lot of work on landfill sites which trashes them) mainly because of the ware and noise issues.
That's why I've got two

thanks for the replies i think il stick to my scorpions for a while and see about simex's a bit later on cheers joe
bigdog:
How about SIMEX MP Trekker? I heard these are radial tires and are more street friendly compared to Extreme and Jungle trekker?
Any feedback in terms of street noise and thread wear?
I'm seriously looking at buying them for my 2 door RRC (7.5 X 16)
