Hi all..
Will be in the market for a new set of shoes/muddies pretty soon or when funds allow...
Was wandering if you can post pics, price and feedback on what ur running.. My bus currently running 33x12.5 Micky t muddies.. Cheers and thanks in advance..
I've been through a few sets over a few years and have kept away from big name brands, i'm currently running a set of Kenda Klever MT in 285/75/16, picked them up for $220 a corner. I've been out up Watagans a few times to test them out and have only lowered tyre pressures to 26psi, other times around 28psi and they have performed better than any other tyre i've had on in the last 6yrs. Not very noisy on roads but offroad these things just shine, I used to love Kumho KL71's but these Kendas have really impressed me, worth looking at mate if you don't want to spend big money.
Like any tyre thread you will get heaps of 'for' and 'against', a heap of variables on who uses what on what terrain .
Kuhmo's were the worst tyre I ever had on a 4X over here in WA.
They have less tread depth than most others off the shelf, wore the first 50% quickly and were very poor off road (again only did WA work with them).
I tried them because of other good reports and have no doubt they must be Ok in other parts of Aus.
Bridgies, Procomp and Coopers have all performed brilliant for me (work or play) and currentlyour work fleet run Bridgies and Coopers on the and I have Hankook MT's on my Cab Chassis which I am very happy with.
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
