Thread: Got new shoes

They look like quite a nice tread pattern! How do they go in the wet and gooey stuff?

Very good in mud bit loose on sand so far but will know when i get a few miles up. fairly quiet on road up to 80k but increase over that.

Very nice Frank.

Will be keen to hear your views after a few weeks running them in.
I'm soon in the market for a set of replacements for my Maxxis Bighorns. Probably BFG KM2's if I can afford them, but am open to other suggestions for a MT that behaves on-road and off-road.

Cheers, Paul.

Hey Paul they were recommended to me by the same person who fitted the Bridgestone Duellers to my wifes Nissan Patrol he recons i should get 60-65,000k out of them they are a little loose on sand/gravel as yet but only got 400k on them and they were running 32psi. Really positive in the slippery clay out the back in the hills here, gave them a good squirt for a half a day and didn't spin a wheel. $290 a tire fitted. Now i have to fit a rear wheel carrier.

hey paul, the KM2's are AMAZING!! thats what im running, n they prob have 40% tread left, still grips well... give that guy warren a call..(the number i gave u)

Took the rig upto Dargo and around to Talbotville some other rough tracks tyres went very well absolutely no chipping found and grip was excellent. One thing of note it is difficult to get it to hold converter lockup when below 85kms. It does hold on the flat but any rise and out goes the converter. Maybe 265/65/16 might have been better still out powers Toyotas so all is not lost.
