the 34 x 9.50 is a great tyre on a Zuk. LjExtreem is running basically the Q78 on his zuk and has had a problem breaking CVs withit whereas Greg and myself have been running the 34s for quite a few years with low gearing and lockers and touch wood haven't broken anything yet

I think BigSteve is thinking about putting q78's on his new suzuki buildup... may just have to wait and see what happens :)

I have seen LJX in the bush a few times now .. I have also seen a few errm "red mist charges from him" .. you and greg are a little kinder and more touchy feely with your vehicles :D may also explain the fewer breakages you guys experiance ... Chris broke a CV with open diffs and SAT's :?

Hey Camo,

It may be worthwhile having a look at this thread re: q78's on little sierras... You may decide that you cannot fit them due to the amount of the body that you want to keep / or the over all height of the car that you want to keep it at/under.
