Diamond , I was wondering what you consider a good off road tyre for the Cruiser , I was looking at the Buckshot mudder in a 315 / 75 / 16 ( I think there the equivelent to 35's ) I was told there a good all rounder. I am rounding up a spair set of rims to purchase some Mungrels from motorway for the real hard cre stuff . Your input will be greatlly appreciated .

Ps: will my 275 / 75 / 16 fit on my brother inlaws 1998 Prado Venus Bay

gday eric.
i have a set of 275/75/16 muddys that i scored of a bloke who sold his 1998 prado and had to fit highway tyres so the answer to that one is easy yes.
now the second question may be a bit harder as i dont think we have ever sold any hard core tyres ever.
truckster might be able to help with that hes right in to it.
as for motorway mongrels im getting on to a supplier tommorow about some of them theres a few people been asking for them so hold on a little i might be able to do a great deal on a bigger order.from what people have been saying there a pretty awsome remould and a guy today in an 80series was going on about his mates cruiser and mongrels when they went away last weekend. back by popular demand

Thanks mate , would be great. A friewnd had them on his 45 series , and reconds they got him out of most spots, they chewed through the mud no problems, They only down side is the side wall , He put one through a branch pretty easy . Could have been just a bad hit , who knows . I know the going to releise a 315 / 75 / 16 soon .

Cheers mate , Venus Bay

gday mate.
problem with remoulds you dont know what cases they use but when you start getting into bigger sizes there usually a better case might have just been a bad hit as you said dosnt matter what tyre you have if you get the wrong type of spike your buggeredback by popular demand

gday mate.
got on to motorway today.
315 not out yet and 33s about 200ish not cheap for a remould.
i can get hold of some brand new 34s in an army mud terain for about the same price can also get some 33s in a sumitomo(jap tyre)muddy for about the same
