mark, just make sure you let them down to 18psi offroad  :wink:

here is a tip for you though
to soften the side walls up as there megger stiff
when you fit them, drive 5 miles or so on them with only about 10psi in, they soften up a treat and there way better offroad then when let down  :wink:  :wink:

the advantage of the JT's aswel is....you can do a 5mm re-cut on them when there low  :wink:

dan


Thanks Dan,

Will post a pic when i get them fitted  :wink:

Cheers

Nope, we are starting nearer the south then moving north and hope to be around Strata Florida saturday evening (i love that place) then moving a little further north sunday. That is all dependant on weather conditions though (please please snow) :wink:

Have to say these simex are worth every penny!
I dont think i will ever put a different tyre on again :cool: :cool: :cool:



However on my recent trip (and first trip) over Sarn Helen i noticed muddy tracks parralell to the main track, they look as though they had recently been driven too! Is this normal or are we going to end up get this lane closed too :evil: :evil:

 

Cheers

Had to source the wheels myself, got them from Silverline and were delivered the 3rd of Jan as promised by them! All turned out good in the end :cool:
