Post by GUpatrol02 »

tyres

Post by micks troll »

I've run the Toyo opats as a road tyre in a 31/10.5/15 and they were excellent on road and good on sand and dirt road. They have a rounded shoulder so they dont dig in the sand as badly as other more agressive AT's. I swaped these for some 33 Mtr's as i wanted 8" rims they sucked on road and were noisy also. I now run Maxxis Bravo 751 series in a 33/12.5/15 they are smooth ride, quiet and so far been good on sand and forestry tracks up around gympie etc. Another good tyre that a mate runs for mainly road use is Yokohama Geolanders Ats's.
These may be some other options for you!!.
Enjoy your hunt!
