Which tyre to choose

Post by benm887 »

hae everybody.
Ive got a 91 lwb safari and am in the process of buying a set of 33" tyres and rims for it. Im planning in getting some 15x10 steel rims and was wondering which mt tyre to choose. I plan on doing plenty of offroad driving and quite a bit of onroad driving aswel. Ive read the reviews on the nankang's as they seem like a cheap hard wearing tyre but think they could be to thin for the 10" rim.

33/12.50/15 would be better on a 8 inch wide rim for offroad use.

agree^^^^^. Also the nankangs are dear as now. They seem to average over the $300 mark now. Lot of other /better options for that money now. Also they are a small 33
Gt radials, Kumhos and Maxxis tyres are pretty good. They also seem to be a proper 33in tyre aswell(except the buckshots)
