Post by 3VILC »

Does anyone reckon these would be any good?:

Or are they too worn to be useful? Offroad truck only, currently has 31" dynapros on it with good tread

At 5mm centres there is very little life left in them.
Used to be a very good tyre off road, but worn quickly and once 50% worn were well and truly passed there used by date.
Also mentions perishing of the side walls. Not a good.

Depends what kind of terrain you intend to travel.
They will still have side bite for some terrain.

Its worth the money for the alloys and tubes alone :mrgreen:
