Mud terrains
« on: February 18, 2014, 06:29:14 PM »
These are mainly for road use but work can get sticky and I have rescued a few of my dipstick co workers when they have ventured onto the brown stuff.

Other than BFG's which I like but are pricey at 285/75/R16 anyone rate anything else, had my eye on these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285-75x16-HANKOOK-RT03-TYRE-2857516-HANKOOK-285-75-16-HANKOOK-MUD-TYRE-x-1-/171215069919?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item27dd36a2df

and the cooper stt. I need minimal road noise so don't say insa turbos please

ta doods  :icon_super:

Hankook used to be in partnership or were partly owned by Michelin (80/20 IIRC). As such they have good compounds and some of their tread patterns are very similar to slightly older Michelins, so close in fact they might even be using refurbished moulds!

I've been using Hankooks for years on the family cars and have never been dissapointed!

I have a set of 4 Yokohama Geolanders 265/75/16 M/T+ for sale .
Only covered 70 miles.
I bought them for my ZJ and then went and bought the Wrangler  a week later. As the ZJ is not getting used offroad anymore I have put A/T back on her.

No problem. I have not tried to sell them yet  as I did not want to take a big loss on them and "as new" tends to not sell as new.
