Nankang 265/75 x 16 MT's.......

**jerryd** · 19th September 2008, 09:53 PM

The County Landrover I recently purchased has two front tyres that are not up to legal standard

but the rear two are probably 85% tread left.
I thought rather than buy two new road tyres, I'd buy four mud tyres instead.
The place I called in to enquire about tyres, said the Nankang MT's were a good tyre and priced at $215 fitted and balanced.

I'm just wondering if anybody has used these tyres and how they compare to other makes ??? Or can I find something better for similar money ???

Thanks for any advice

I have NangKang Mudstars 33x12.5x15 on for last 2 and a half years, 85% off road driving, logged about 40,000klms just over half worn, no problems whatsoever on or off road and will be purchasing another same brand set when these wear out, would recommend, Regards Frank.

Yes I am quite pleased with them, probably another year or 20,000klm+ left in them, I drive mainly on sharp, shaly rocky mountain roads out the back of my place here on the South Coast of NSW, as I only have to travel about 6klms to get on the fire trails the majority of my driving is off road, no cuts or stakes, no flats (knock on wood), the few trips to Sydney didn't show up any problems, wet or dry, so I will be buying them again, Regards Frank.
