Hi Groovers,
Currently im running Goodyear Wrangler 31 x 10.5 MT/R's on my Surf. These are going to come due for replacement in the next 10K or so. Im wondering do I stick with the Wranglers (they have been faultless on everyhitng ive asked of them) or do I try the Cooper muddies ? I have heard that the Coopers are indetructible but then again so are the wranglers (in my opinion) what do you guys reckon ?

Cheers

Hi Truckster
Use the car (and the same tyres) for everything. Everyday on road, Touring & blasting around the bush on the weekends. Normally I average abuot 30k ish per year. The only problem I have noticed with the Wranglers is that if I dont rotate / balance them EVERY 5K the start to scalp

just done 10,000km on our cooper stt 285x75x16 (7000km of it was up to tib - birdsville -boulia-alice - ood etc) and they were pretty chopped up s we thought till the guy at alice said that every tyre looks like that out here on these roads......im loving the coopers......wranglers were our next choice,glad we did coopers.They have done so well in all kinds of conditions.....loved the sand at Big Red!!!!
