hankook RT03 good all round black round rubbery thing
Re: m/t tyres ?
Goodyear Wrangler MTR's are really good offroad tyres. They aren't too noisy on the road and handle very well. I rate them very highly. I think they are $239 a tyre. The new model is out so they will be trying to flick the older model I would say
Re: m/t tyres ?
BFG Mud terrain Km's
Re: m/t tyres ?
Have a chat with Rob (Robo), he is a vendor on here, his details are here http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/marketp ... dial-tyres
70 series prado (KZJ78) and 90 Series Prado (KZJ95)
Re: m/t tyres ?
BGF m/t km get my vote, good in the mub and not to bad on the road
Re: m/t tyres ?
search mud tyres in the search forum bit over >>>>> and ^^^^ a bit. Everybodys got a different opinion. I like Kumho Kl71s myself.
Softroader VW Amarok nowadays.... 

Re: m/t tyres ?
Yay, another thread were everyone lists what tires they are running
I like Maxis Buckshot Mudders for good wear rate's on the road and a $199 a tah they good value.
I like Good year MT/R as a good all rounder with outstanding performance for a non competition tyre off the road but they are expensive at over $300 a tah.
I like Federal Couragia's, they are just awesome. To soft for any serious road (need another set of road tyres) use but awesome off road.
Perelli Scorpions M/T are another awesome tyre (need another set of road tyres), to soft for good road milage, but awesome off road.
Best advice is to choose whether you want a MT or an AT or a competition tyre, then buy the cheapest you can
They all wear out after all

2nd that. Just got a set myself. Seem all good so far!
2WD 06 Hilux... for now
Re: m/t tyres ?
BFG muddies get a consistent good report but you pay $$$ for them. Oh, and they are BFG KM2 now.
Michelin XZLs are hard to beat and are cheaper than the BFGs. Asked a guy who had the Kumho KL71s what he thought of them, his were well used - his response was that they were good enough but if he'd buy them again? No.
You want real muddies? What about Simex's.
