Tyres

[lazy rambler]

I'm going to be replacing my Bronco Grizzly Claw's soon, 2 of the 4 have slow punchers (but fast enough to be a problem). I'm not looking for something as aggressive this time, but it still needs to be good in the mud.

I've narrowed it down to 3 options and now I need some opinions of the tyres so I can pick 1.

I was originally going to get some Maxxis Buckshot Mudders.



But these seem to have gotten more expensive recently and are now more that what I want to spend.

My other 2 options are:

Maxxis Bighorn



And Cooper Discoverer STT



There is less than the cost of a pint between a set of these 2, but it's an extra £90ish for the Buckshot Mudders. Are they worth it, or should I go for 1 of the others. Anyone now what any of these are like in the mud.

I think out of those two choices I would go for the Maxxis Bighorns...
The more sideways tread the better

Personally though I wouldn't get either of those though...

Have you considered Kumho KL71s?

They are still great in the mud, but have a much smoother tread pattern than the Grizzlies and are really great on the road!



or Insa Turbo Saharas?

They are a bit better in the mud than the KL-71s, and only a tiny bit louder on the road.



I do a lot of road miles in my zook (when its on the road ), and a lot of mudding as well, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend KL71s or Saharas to anyone

I don't fancy the Saharas, as far as I'm aware they're remoulds and I'm trying to avoid them. Are the KL71's remoulds or new tyres?

Can't find the KL71's in the size I want. I'm after 31x10.5x15, nearest I can find the KL71's is 30x9.5x15 a bit too narrow for me. 10.5 is just about good enough for beach driving.

[lazy rambler]

Just found them In the size I want, and much cheaper than the other options. Might be the way to go.

I love my insa's on and off road.

Also they seen to be pretty cheap

RE Tyre Life

I bought a set of 4 Sahara Tyres off some bloke on ebay for £90
They here already half worn, and lasted me 2 years. They would have lasted longer but I always end up doing silly things like burnouts and drifiting

If you had a new set I reckon they would last 5 years+ (with some semi-careful driving)

Ive got to vouch for the saharas. Had them on my last 3 vehicles and loved them
