    Tyre Damage

    Went up the same hill twice today, fairly rocky and steep, about 400-500m long, 2nd Low, Light\Medium Throttle, Centre and Rear Diff Locked.

    Tyres looked ok before hand, had done less than 15000k.

    This is what they all look like now. The one on the rhs even has 3/4 of lug completely gone.

    Looks like you've been playing in the shale.

    Did you air down????
    It helps with traction and the tyres mould onto the rocks better and dont slip as easy chewing the lugs off.

    What tyre are they ?

    I have worse issues than that with the old pattern STTs on my 110. Ripped lugs off to the steel belt and other lugs actually looked like they had melted. I needed to use less right foot and lower tyre pressures. Expensive lesson.
