Hey guys. Prolly has been asked b4 but couldnt find it. Ive got a single cab hilux that is dd. Gets a workout on the weeknd on pretty much every terrain..ive got some new silent armous that came on it and they are a great tire, i want a 32 inch tyre, and im thinking all terrain to save the whole tyre swapping rubbish. So basically my qustion being, from experince or knowing, what a/t tyre would be the best for a solid hilux? Also how would the cooper stt's go on my lux? Cheers guys

They hopefully would go round and round...
You need to think what you want from a tyre. A 'normal' type A/T won't cut it for very long if you do some harder driving in the bush and mud etc.
Most popular intermediate choices are Goodyear MTRs and Mickey MTZ at the moment.

yeh i no all bout mud tires been there done that. I still get pretty far on the at's ive got so thats why im considering at's, no tyre swapping and judt lock bth ends (air) so i can daily drive comfortably. i really want them disco st's but they dont make 32''. Spewin. and wouldnt mind the atz mickey t but again no 32. cant win.

they do acutally make the 32 atz but only 16'' and i dont recon 16's look that flash on a hilux. anyone think 16's on lux would be good or does it not really matter? thanks for the re's too

You just said
yeh i no all bout mud tires been there done that
And then asked about the STT mud tyres
I think BFG MT are the longest wearing M/T by most reports.
So what type of tyre do you want?? Do you know?
