What mud tyres and size do you recommend for the Grand cherokee 4.0 ltd currently with 225/70x16 General Grabbers ?
-
is it a daily runner if so I am running some Goodyear Wrangler MTR's at the moments, seem to be a good tyre and pretty good in the sticky stuff
on the other I have Insa Sahara's and I love em to be honest, well behaved on the road for a mud tyres and not that noisy either,
-
I like Insa Turbo Sahara's :D
-
Thanks guys car does a bit of both, teach quad biking so need to get in and out of the fields but travel to events so has lots of road use as well, what size would you recommend, thanks?
-
You can fit 255x70r15's under a stock ZG, so what ever the 16" version of those is - Something around a 23x70r16 would fit fine
for the money you'll not beat Insa turbos, they are remoulds but brilliant reputation.

My Grand cherokee is running 225/70x16 General Grabber road tyres, would a 225/75x16 fit want to go to KL71 Khumos ??
-
Is it a ZG or WG....?
-
It is a 1996 early N-Plate Grand, not the flat front cherokee
-
Probably get some 235 x 75 R15's in there..
-

Are you commision for Maxxis???????????????????????????????????????????????????
Maybe I should ask for some.... from what I've seen they offer an excellent range at a fair price, they have an excellent pedigree, just not well known over here... Used in extreme stuff in the states....

sorry to hijack but can you run 245/75 R17 BFG instead of the standard 235/65 R17's on a Grand Cherokee WJ????
It seems otherwise your restricted on choice for off road tyres?
Cheers
-
Are Maxxis remoulds????
-
Nope, new tyres.

Fitted a set to my Cherokee, off road fantastic, close to BF muds and very quite at 70mph. Will be using them on the Wrangler.
Very pleased with them.
They are actually cheaper than many remoulds (Insa)
285/75 R16 (33") fitted £350 Buckshot mudders

Thinking of getting 31x10.5R15 Maxxis Trepadors for Cherokee (£320 fitted)

I have a '99 GC (WJ) with 235/70 16 Kingpin Technic Amazon MT Remould. £54 a corner from 4x4 Tyres: http://www.4x4tyres.com/index.php?show=tyres&rim=R16&profile=235/70 (http://www.4x4tyres.com/index.php?show=tyres&rim=R16&profile=235/70). these have so far proved very good off-road and quiet on. Take a look at your manual and see what size snow tyres are recommended.

No Probs glad to help, worth jotting down the part number from the US site as not all stockist know all the details... if you get stuck are man here in Plymouth has a good contact that seems to sort any problems.
A few people are also selling them on a well known internet auction site.
