Go the Simex, great for Victorian mud and the 36's with the three centre lugs are relatively quiet on road and wear well, just what you want if you are doing any decent kms on them ie going to the high country.

the hard thing about the high country is the shale it cuts up tyres like nothing else.

i have seen TSL's, boggers, and centipedes loose lugs and get cut up on there first trip up here. the only thing that seems to stop this from happening is a bit of time on tarmac, i guess this helps curer the tyre more and hardens it up a bit (due to heat build up).

but my pic would be TSL SX's, they climb out of ruts like nothing else, there pretty good on road they're good in mud they have seam to have a slightly harder compound than TSL and they flex better than cetipedes.

they aren't as effective in mud as the simex, but then the simex don't come close to boggers in the mud.

I would not even think twice about getting another set of simex's. SIMEX IS THE WAY. Especially with the three lugs in the centre.
