Re: sumitomo serengeti any good??
i went from worn 265/75/16 hankook rt01s to 33/12.5/15 sumitomos. the improvement was massive! but since then i have decided it was just cause i was going to a bigger newer tyre. still as far as buget tyres go i think they hold their own. im assuming they are for the terrano, which im assuming wont be doing many (if any) hard trips so im sure they will be fine.

Re: sumitomo serengeti any good??
I had a set of 33's on my old club truck and found them very good for there price, cleared well and bagged well, never poped the beads the onlt thing is buy the size up from what you want as the sizing is over rated my 33's were only 32", seem's .1 of an inch is enough to call them 33 

If you follow me in the bush you must be mad cause I'm plain CRAZY !!!

Aus 4wd mag (now 4wd Action - no not our 4x4 action) did a reveiw on these and a whole lot of others some time ago and the sumitomos came out near the top.
Re: sumitomo serengeti any good??
had a set on the navara throws the mud general got stuck on the chassis and found ok on the road now on the jeep but could be to floaty for that
what size were you going for?
brother ran them on longwheel base landcrusier and got good road mileage belive hes looking at puting some on his exploder when the current ones expire
a case of what you think as its your bucks you're spending
