Thread: 19" Maxxis AT Tyres

I must be having a bad IT skills day. I can't even find the app on the Apple site. Anyway I'm posting from my laptop now and here are the details on the side:

10PR 115/112S.

The guy in the shop said they were ten ply but as Ive learned from the thread 10PR does not mean that, it means equivalent. I could see no reference to sidewall plys. Sorry if this is not helpful.

Tyres were made in Thailand, btw.

UPDATE: BTW Ive been concerned about talk of sidewall bulge in the Hankooks, I have to say there is next to none in these tyres. Mind you the guy in the shop has them at 40psi and says should stay there and then come off a bit when offroad.

That's fine, it was just out interest.
The Maxxis certainly "look the part".

I look forward to hearing how the ride is after a few thousand kms!

I'm pretty confident ride will be fine, you could put granite wheels on a D4 and be happy with the ride.

• I want to get 60 thou out of them, unless I go bush and hammer the crap out of them on some horror track, in .which case fair enough, as long as they stay inflated.
• I don't want to have to unload all the gear including the Engel and the wine so I can access the spare tyre to fix a flat just because I'm offroad. (I know flats happen in the bush, and anywhere, but I mean to give myself the best chance).
• I don't want end up pointing the wrong way on an on/off ramp in the rain
• I don't want to find myself wandering all over the road at 100kph.

If all of that comes true I'll count myself lucky and be grateful.

Good load rating and lack of bulge would indicate good side wall strength. This could be the 19" off road tyre everyone's been waiting for.

Looks very similar to BFG A/T,i am sure that square sidewall helps to reduce sidewall damage.

Some say it also reduces flotation in soft sand,but i have never found that an issue,in either the D2 or D4.

Good work James,will be very interested to see how they go.

You should have seen them before the tyre guy wiped them down

Im glad mine dont have that narrow wedge shaped opening,a nightmare to clean,mine are bad enough.
Next time you treat it to a wash put Rainex on the rims Makes them easier to clean,alot of the black hoses off.
