Hi there, as the primary fanboy ;) of the grabber tyre how are you finding them to wear, quick like a Goodyear or geologically like a Michelin? Cheers.

Well I don't do many miles in the Jimny so it's hard to say really they still look like new and have still not let me down on the road a better person to ask might be my partner in crime another fan of the Grabber aka Halford I think he uses his quite a bit ;) sorry I can't be more help :)

:laugh: IMO they tend to lean towards the Michelin camp

Very happy with them

But saving up for BFGs as nothing can better them, and superior in the wet, and that's what matters to us up North

If I my be so bold as to butt in here :whistle: ....my Grabbers have got coming up 19k miles on them and they still look like new....worst of the four has 8.5 mm, the best has 9.5 mm.....I'd be pushed to consider any of the alternatives to be honest, I don't cane it but I'm no slouch either :whistle:
Hope this helps,

Gus :)

Cheers, I'm sure he will be along when he sees your name. But what you are saying is that there's no significant amount of wear in what 5 or 6 thousand miles or is that more than you have done?

They were brand new on my red Jim and did 16k miles, then I put them on the blue one and they've done nearly 3k.......They stick like the proverbial to a blanket, too :woohoo:
