Changing to good year silent Armor all terrain. 265/70R60. Reason is, my current ones are illegal size, and I'm merging more into the tourer scene as aposed to all ofroad.
Although want to check out the coopers too.
Would recommend km2's to anyone looking for an offroad tyre.

Sidewall damage is usually what ruins an offroad tyre, so it pays to spend a bit of time checking them out when you are in the shop.

Sometimes it os possible to get a bad batch of tyres. Or other times it could just be unlucky damage that happened on or off road. I read all over a 4wd facebook page about km2's being crap and falling apart after little km's, and they said what a crap quality tyre they are, yet look at the km's I got? Lol

Offered $100 trade in on my stock and suggested Yokohama geolander a/t-s. Reckons they will replace for free a damaged/unrepairable tyre as long as it is 3/4 or more tread depth, go half price on 1/2 to 3/4 tread depth etc at any Yokohama dealer throughout Australia. Anyone else come across this offer? The guy says the deal is by Yokohama themselves. Tyres were pretty pricey though, think he said 270 on top of trade in but can't remember for sure

I looked at a set of 265/75/16 maxxis bighorn but a bit worried about road noise from the extreme pattern, although they would look awesome!... I opted for the Mickey Thompson AT 4 rib 265/75/16... I went back through about 10 pages of the thread and didn't find much reading on these, anyone had much experience or running these? if so what do you think?
cheers
