Just had RAC out to change my wheel , yes ok lazy git i hear you say but the driver was great, he was an off-roader until he got into dessert racing he still has a lowered rangy-landrover hybrid in the outbuildind, not used for 2yrs,his back gave in.  Maybe i should have got his number for a test drive?

Funny mine seem ok in all weathers on and off tarmac.

I had more fun with 205 road tyres, could be the size and weight of motor and the load of tools I carry in the back all the time though :lol:

=P~  8)  Yep great tyres them offroad, seen them in action on a mates rangie and a suzuki sj. Grip in the mud was unbeleiveable to an extent.. great in the dry over rocks etc as well. Plus they didnt seem to ware out as quick as say my Grizzlies.
Have fun....  :wink:
If in first you dont suceed,try second....
If it aint broke, your not trying ard enough....
