Tyre Feedback - Federal Couragia MT

[AB]

thats the hard part really isn't it i've had the BFG AT for 100000km now and they're pretty much stuffed and its either $400 for new 33x12.5 for KM2 or $300 for fed 35x12.5 so i don't know what would be the better deal for me with 70/30 road/track work, and have you tried them in sand at all?? or has any tried them in the sand??

Yeah mate, tried them up at Straddy and on the Murray and surprisingly really good for a mud terrain. Not much noise on road and all round great but just concerned for the longevity that's all.

I've done 8k ish on my km2s, and apart from the molding sticks they look brand new. Oh and the cuts in them from wheeling.

I paid $300 for my km2s less then 6 months ago. I do feel I got an amazing deal.
It's hard choosing tyres cause you want something good for everything and to last. As far as I know the Feds are pretty good on/off road, but wear out pretty quick. Bloke at work has them, I don't think they will see 40k.

Either that or I look at maxxis bighorns. My dad and bro have always either BFG or mickeys so it's had to move away from something I always trusted

Honestly bighorns are over rated. They were good while they were cheap, but they aren't that cheap any more. If you are looking for a cheap set have a look at Summit Mud Hogs. Couple guys at work have them, they seem to go well. Unfortunately they are still only a reasonably new brand so it's hard to judge life expectancy. Should still see 70-80k

Mine are as new still, but I only drive 2ks to work and back, not sure how many ks they have on them now

Km2's for the win mate. 85k on mine and still going. Should see 100k easy . It works out cheaper in the long run if you spend a little more and then get twice as many k's.
