there a truck tyre and used on vechiles 2 or 3 times heavily strong side walls surely? Not as good as simex agree but for the price there a good buy!

Agreed, I don't believe they air down as good as the Simex due to stiff walls...but as you say...half the price   :D
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!

But wont that stop the side wall flexing enough to give better grip when using lower tyre pressures?

yes and no, if you have air'd down then yes they dont flex as well but if your on hard ground like rock then the weight of the vehicle will make them but the good thing about this will stop the side walls being exposed so much to be damaged as there isnt so much of a "podge" at the bottom.

Swings and Round abouts i guess...... but usually pay for what you get.....

As with all things in life you get what you pay for with tyres
I personally would never fit remoulds to any of my cars (unless it was a trailered one)
I'd save up a buy the real Simex

you'll be very lucky to get those fedima sirocco any more, they were struggling to find big enough carcases
apparently they aint been any in the country for around 4months now
another down side to them they aint speed rated for your disco adam

ill ask jimmy tomorrow for you if i remember
have you thought about all the things you'll break tho ?
also you'll need to change the transfer box aswel ad, it wont like it on the auto box
they aint the most forgiving tyre around, and considering your right foot, youll break things on road  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

im rather liking the maxxis creepy krawlers atm  8)
ronny ( beam ends 90 ) has got them now and he rates them quite well  8)


oh before i ask jim
say the diesels are the best thing ever, sound awesome, and beat v8's any day  :tongue:  :tongue:

get my own back time....i didnt forget  :lol:
