30 inch Pirelli Scorpion ATs on a sierra.

Cant fault them so far, go great on road dirt mud sand water etc.

Only annoying thing is sometimes pebbles get caught in the tread and click on the bitumen when you go along, it shits me..

A mates mrs runs those remould Mongerels on her zook. It only sees offroad very rarely and on tracks my statesman can and has been down. Anyway, they seem to do ok, and they are wearing excellently on bitumen, you can barely notice theyre even worn.

On my sierra - 31 MTR's for road, 32 tsl/sx swampers offroad. Rate the MTR's highly for both on road and offroad. My little brother has 30 inch MTR's on his feroza. These might be worth a look for your vit. MTR's are great onroad, and good offroad except in really muddy sloppy stuff. The swampers are sh&t onroad, but awesome offroad (keep in mind they are not road legal, and cost way to much to use on the road anyway)

I run 30x9.5 on my sierra in the motorway Mud terrain remould. THese have been an excellent tyre for the price ~$130 each and can only fault them in really sticky clay that will just fill up the tread. running mud isn't a problem as long as you are giving it heaps of right boot to keep the self cleaning happening...

I'm going to upgrade to motorway mongrels soon....

you do realise they are tyres don't you? He answered that part of the question.

Have you done any sort of search on here as the topic of tyre choice comes up all the time and has been answered so many times now

x2 if you want a Vit you can live with and drive everyday.

Pirelli Scorpion's are also a very good all rounder.

i agree with that, any more on stock gearing would be very painfull as a daily driver, mine has the 2.0l & is just bearable as a daily driver
