i have just bought the infinity's @ £299 delivered, will let you know how i get on with them, they look huge in the hall way of the house i hope they will fit OK i went for the 265/70/16 as they didn't do them in 255. I need a new hub fitting first on my 97 ex and the wheel alignment doing as one front tyre is badley scrubbed, I have just made an offer on a set of standard alloys as well to replace the chrome steel wheels, so i will put the steel wheels up for sale soon

Just noticed that mine are 235's!! I always thought it looked undertyred. It doesn't drive badly though but explains why the speedo is so optimistic!!! Unfortunately, they're wearing well and, although I should, I can't bring myself to change a healthy set of tyres. GRoB.

any suggestions ?

Ay up Rich, i've been doing alot of research on tyres recently. Mine have loads of tread left but the rubber must have gone hard. Getting scary in the wet.
I think i'm going to go for the Cooper Discoverer AT3.

I really can't complain about my General Grabber AT2's in 265/70R16 on the road in the dry or wet with standing water. I have done about 300 miles now but not had them on mud or snow so far. Mine were £480 for 4. I like the chunkiness of the MT's for sure, I'm just not off road enough to justify it. Looking forward to testing the Grabbers a bit more though!

Hey ,

Yer looked at them grabbers many times have a similar tread pattern now ( AT2 )

not bad in any way , just fancy the MT this time

and Kev looked at the coopers .. they look cool

worried the 75 tyre height's going to rub on full lock there aint a lot of room on full lock to the wheel arch cover

insa dakar comes in 70 profile ...


have to research again
