Mark, I had Kuhmo
tyres on a FJ45 troopy a few years ago, don't know the model, but they were fitted when it was our S.E.S. recovery vehicle. They only had a couple of thousand kms on them when 2 of the 4 fitted, destroyed themselves on the
birdsville track on our first trip and as we know, that is not a particularly tough track. I have since done the
Birdsville 3 times, as well as many other much tougher tracks, on BFG A/Ts without a puncture. If they are not available in your size then try Bridgestone or Coopers. I had a terific run with Kuhmo on road cars but will not fit them off road again. Happy trails, Mike.

Thanks Mike. The size I'm after is odd, so no BFG or Bridgestone, but thare are Cooper ST available. These are the two I will look at. The Kumho's are $160 each, the Coopers $210. So for a set of five, thats $250. I just have to weigh it up, and your experience is exactly the kind of
feedback I am after. Thanks!
