Looking into some Nexen MT's just wondering who has run them and what they thought of them.

I've had the same set on my zook for about 5000kms and now on my 80 series for about 15,000kms and they are going quite well. They bag out fairly good even under the light weight of the sierra and haven't had a flat yet which I was sure I would have been such a cheap tyre and on all the gravel and sharp rock I did on my last big trip. I paid $185each fitted for 235/85r16.

Good to hear I was thinking the same thing re Flats and that how did they perform off road?

I haven't had any problems with them but they aren't a super aggressive tyre. I found the one time I went through clay type mud they didn't clean aswell as the maxxis buckshots I used to have as the nexens' voids aren't as large.

Cheers for your insight but i got quote for some silverstones MT117 sports which are only about 20 bucks dearer so i think i will just go with them.
