I agree, AT's are ok on gravel roads and that's about it. In mud in my experience they just cake up and turn to slicks.

I'm about to go from ATs to a MT. I had MTs on my last wagon and only really needed them a small % of the time, but when ya need them ya need them eh.

I've got a winch, most (all) my 4wding is up gravel riverbeds where ATs seem to perform as well as MTs, and they'd be better for the other 95% of my driving which is on the road. Also if I don't like them I can sell them and buy some MTs again. I'm keen to give 'em a go. Had good performance from BFG ATs in Oz but gosh they're expensive.

If you can get by with an AT then they are way better than a mud tyre for daily driving, muds just wear so quickly. Like you say for gravel river beds and road driving, the AT is sweet.

Have a look at tyreshoponline.co.nz ,have brought a set of new muds recently cheap as chips and great service. Cheers

Had those on the Safari. Glad to see them gone.

I've got Free Passer M/T's from tyreshoponline on the current wagon and they are very good. Not sure on wear yet but traction on and off road are excellent. They sit flat on the road with only 25psi in them.

I always buy off Steve and Tracey, great people to deal with. Just bought another couple of Hercules DT's. My current set have done 58,000kms and still have 5-8mm tread on them. Bloody good tyres on and off road for an "A/T"

The tyre you speak of isn't what it once was ,had quite a number of reports on them being quite slippery on road.
probably doesn't help that most of the Utes these days have a ton of grunt!

Perfect for his 3B then...?

Are you staying with the 15" or moving to 16"?

Sticking with 15s. Need new rims tho

Ok. I asked coz I have 4 new 16x8 black steel spokies at work that I will sell soon.

Ah yeah. I reckon I'll stick with 15s, don't see any advantage to 16s
