    I believe the Dick Cepeks are an identical tyre to the Mickey T's without the price tag (coming out of the same factory)and as for people concerned about the name they are listed as a FC-II on the sidewall. I am currently running that size in another brand and love them however run on the highest setting on my Llams to minimize rubbing.

    No experience with the "Fun Country", but we have a set of "Mud Country" tyres on at the moment. Have done a lot of road driving, and recently started to get some use off road, including some mud on Sunday.

    Previous experience on the Defender was Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ.

    Tyres are 35" x R15 x 12.5.

    In comparison to the MTZ, the Mud Country tyres have impeccable road manners, excellent grip in the wet, and very, very quiet. I would hear the MTZs roar at any appreciable speed, the Dick Cepeks are almost silent. I would imagine the "Fun Country" would be even quieter.

    Any issues with using the 265/70/17 tyre?

    Hi Shane,
    No issues if you have Llams or GOA rods for off roading. I have ground away the front of the inner wheel arch plastic cover quite a bit in extreme conditions, but nothing to much to worry about.
    Cheers,
    Terry
