Hi All
Does anyone run mud terrains in there gu patrol wagon and what pressure are you running at, so i can get maximum wear out of them?
I just changed those bridgestone duellers you get standard on the patrols and bought a decent set of tyres.
I usually run with no weight in the back(wagon) unless heading away but have bar,winch,dual batts in front.
Cheers
Tim

Hi Tim,

I have BFG MT's also and run 36 around the streets and 24 on the dirt. You can run a bit more on the bitumen depending if you have a load etc or don't mind a harsher ride. Bro in law also has the same setup and runs 38 on the bitumen and 24 on the dirt and tyres are wearing evenly.

Leroy, how many K's have you got out of your muddies? I am thinking of doing the same as Tim but unsure about wear rates. I would be running the same size as him. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks
