I have looked at the KL71's but they look like they are rotational, which is fine but what would I use as a spare?
I was also looking at the recip trials as my mate has some on his landy but I'm not sure whether to go back to retreads as they seem to wear a lot quicker. And again what would I do about a spare?
Choices choices!!

I am on 215/75 R15 and no problems, I have General Grabber AT2. The big problem with these tyres is on Mud,


In the mud, being A/T couldn't expect much more I suppose. ..
Do you expect to do much off-roading ??

On road and dry off roading they are very good and also last a long time... done 10000 miles and they are still perfect almost new .

Yeah I'll be doing a fair bit of off roading as Tong is only 20 mins away!! Used to go to every pay and play day in the disco! I also do a bit of laning when I get chance! Hopeing to do some at the back end of the month as I'm off to the Lakes.

If you are going to Tong regularly, get something more aggressive, how aggressive is up to you but KL71's are not as good as Coopers in mud and they are not as good as special tracks.
