Theres a few around with the 19" GG's that have had good experiences. Tyre construction can differ between sizes so ypu may find that your experience with the 19" is different to the 16-18" rims on the D2.
You had a shocking run with the maxxis babs. When are your new wheels due?
Babs issue was more user error,which he admits.It wasn't the tyres when you look into it.Quote:

I emailed Gordon a few days back and he said the factory were making them then, so it would be another 7-10 days and then another 7-10 I am assuming for air freight.
Maxxis are taking a look at my tyres on Monday, I'll keep you all posted on the outcome, I'm hoping full refund.

I'm convinced there is just not enough sidewall there, wether they are at road pressures or deflated they act different to a tyre with more sidewall. There is less rubber so there seems to be more ball point pressure in a smaller area, whereas more sidewall means more rubber to flex around an object, I'm assuming that the more rubber & flex the less concentrated pressure to one spot.
I hope that makes sense, hard to describe that point of view.
The Maxxis might be LT construction but I just don't thick the sidewalls are thick or stiff enough, the old 3 ply sidewalls of the Coopers and BFG are obviously proven. See how I go when the 18" arrive.
They never actually ran the steels on the LR3, they just test fitted one and decided it would be to hard so kept the comps on.Quote:

So. In the interests of understanding what styles people here like..
Post a pic of a wheel out there you would like in D4 fitment.
Will be interesting to see what people like
Pretty sure they are the ones Aaron40 had test fitted,didnt fit on the front.

Umm, think it was an issue with offset in most States. QLD was an exception from memory.
