    opinions on fun tyres!

    Hi guys, I am about to buy some new fun tyres. What are peoples thoughts on what I should get. I have been running 35x10.5x15 simex centepeds and are totally rooted! I can get these again but in a 11.5 wide for $375 each (Budget is fairly tight) I do all sorts of terrain and wont be driving on the bitumen with these tyres. But I hate getting stuck in mud which is why I loved these tyres! If the is a better tyre for all round use that doesn't cost the earth please let me know!!!

    Thanks Rob

    Assuming you do allot of Mud then the ET2 are the choice tyre. 36/11.5 for the win.

    I have a few mates running the new PitBulls and are stoked with them in a 37. Treps are great too and may be available in a 35??? If not very very soon.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    i domt do alot of mud, but i hate getting stuck in it. I would love a set of treps but they are so expensive and yes 35's are not to far away. thats why i like the pedes at $375 each or do i just get another set of km2's as TD suggested for $300 each.

    Ring Aus tyre and wheel on cnr of Ashmore rd andNerang-southport road and ask. He is the cheapest I have found for Maxxis

    Put it this way it is worth my while to pay his price for sticky treps driving from the top of the sunshine coast and back to get them
