I haven't taken my MFR Super Traction tyres into sandy conditions yet and with a short desert trip coming up soon I thought that doing measurents might give me some idea of where I might be at.
Measurements are only approximate.
Unfortunately I don't have comparisons with my now buggered Cooper STT's which performed very
well in sandy conditions. Maybe someone else has those measurements to share.
