285/75R16 Tires? What to get?

Post by Surf185 »

I'm finding it a bit difficult to find tires in 285/75R16, im after some mt tires that will also last quite well on the road. I have been looking at Hankook Dynapro mt RT03 but not sure what they are like? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Kumho KL71's available in that size.

They are very good tyres. Wearing very well, quiet on road, very good off road. Haven't found any bad points yet. Price was right for me as well.
I've had them (30x9.50r15) on my truck for over a year and done over 30,000kms, and I'm very happy with them.

I have 285/75R16 Hankook RT03s on my bighorn and I am really happy with them so far. done about 12000Km on them in 6 months and seem to be wearing quite well. Great in the mud and are also really quiet on the road.... noise wise, can hardly tell them apart from my old BFG ATs.
