Offroad-Express

g'day all...looking at putting some muddies on my disco ..any idea's on reasonable priced muddies ?
cheers matt

tires tyres donuts.. so many names, so many options!!
you need to state where you will drive, if you want full out mud slinger/ good all round, nice road manners etc etc

Yeah looking for sumthing that is still good for road use but good in mud an stuff.. we do a fair bit of dirt/muddy road driving

$ for $ id go with the mudstar Radial m/t good on road off road and 245 75 16 about $230 or better each

Kumho KL71...........good in the mud, and quiet/handles well on the open road.

hankook RT03 good all round black round rubbery thing

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

BFG Mud terrain Km's

Have a chat with Rob (Robo), he is a vendor on here, his details are here http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/marketp ... dial-tyres

BGF m/t km get my vote, good in the mub and not to bad on the road

search mud tyres in the search forum bit over >>>>> and ^^^^ a bit. Everybodys got a different opinion. I like Kumho Kl71s myself.

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!

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.

or mudzillas or Creepeys

mudzillas maybe but I dunno about 35" Creepies on a disco, take a lot of work to get them fitting and strengthen everything up to keep it reliable
