discowhite is on his second set now, pretty sure he wouldn't of gone back if he wasn't happy.....although his are mtsports, but still he is happy with the build and wear quality as far as i'm aware:)

I'm happy with the Silverstones on our tour vehicles.
The boss has a set of Chinese "Hercules" on trial at the moment.
I'm a bit ambivalent about them, but we'll see.

3 landies in our 4wd club have them and they are great, If I had flares I would have them myself.

Great tyres

[incisor]

anyone used their 255/85x16 A/T tyre ?

[MickG]

I have Silverstone MT sports and they wear very well. Very tough tyre compared to the BFG's I had before. Would definitely buy them again.

not personally, but there are a heap of rodeo's, and mitsubishi's floating around here with the 265's on.

Im pretty sure they are not any standard issue but I will try and find out where Jamie got them from.

He's shut up shop so he can make a living so he is a bit hard to get hold of these days.

[discowhite]

they look likw ''king'' rims to me.

baz, stick with the alloys! they look 10000000000000times better!
steel rims with zero dish should be banned on the sheer barf factor:eek:

I had a set on my 87 Rangie that I sold a few months sgo although the current owner has ofewrd them back to me for a good price too, tempting.

Value for money and traction, they're pretty hard to beat IMO. A bit wide but 99% of the time they worked so I couldn't complain (also used the maxi drives less because I was able to gain traction wheras the BGF's that I had prior would spin easier on rocks, mud, etc..)
