They'll be fine. Shame that company doesn't do big sizes. I really like their prices. Couldn't find anything over a 31/10.50/15

Yeah for the price I think it would be a struggle to beat them, at the end of the day it's still a remould and for that price I'm happy. If I was building a top spec SJ then I would have paid more for a higher quality tyre.

None of mine do high mileage. The KJA isn't being modded for too much off roading. Some light greenlaning maybe.

I can't see me destroying them.

I'll give it some thought, i may fit wider tyres. See how my new alloys are when i get them.
