    Poll

    Could we have a poll to see what tyres are peoples favourites?
    So When people do a search, they can clearly see what (and why if people write a comment). Think it would help alot of people out!

    eg
    - BF Goodrich
    - Coopers
    - Maxxis
    - Mickey Thompson
    Etc

    Well what do you Rekon?

    Sounds like a good idea but I think there needs to be some detail eg tyre spec (MT, AT), tyre size, tyre pressures used, LT or Passenger, vehicle load (empty or loaded) and vehicle used on. I feel sometimes tyres will suit certain vehicles and the load carried, also terrain driven on and size of tyre used. There is a lot of details involved but it would be good to help tyre buyers find a good tyre for their vehicle and purpose.
    Cheers Matt

    you have the ability to start your own poll four boar I don't know if you know that.

    However you may struggle as you can only have 10 options and there are many tyres out there that are not Big brands that people use I fear you simply could not cater for all brands and models of tyres
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    Hey, try driving around the Cessnock and Dungog areas near Newcastle and you will think you have square tyres. The roads are that bad!!

    Very happy with my BFG KM2 muddies - both on and off the road. Mainly running fairly lightly loaded.

    As an aside to this, out of the 40 odd vehicles at the Greendale outing, I think I counted 11 of them with the BFG KM2 muddie, so they seem to be quite popular. By far the most there of a single brand & type (although there were all in differernt sizes)

    Cheers - Gav.

    I have the OE General Grabber TR on my Defender. They have been excellent so far especially living in the snow for the whole winter and having to help out the luxury German SUVs which handle the snow as if they have banana skins instead of tyres

    go 235/85 BFG's AT's, they are easy to obtain pretty much anywhere you may end up going if you are touring as you suggest you may...
