The Blanchisseusse-Maracas run: Initiation of the Newbies!!!

[lighthammer]

3stage - why I like the kumho's is because of the long wear-life.

The kumho's we have on the frontier lasted from christmas 2007 till now and they still have a decent amount of tread on them. Is only cuz I had them underinflated that the shoulders wore out prematurely.


I just called Laughlin and degannes - no stock in the kumho's until next year. All they getting is some michelin highway tyres .


But I agree with u 3stage - the kumho's have an aggressive tread that's slightly better suited for off-road (esp mud/clay) than the toyo's - the larger spaces between the lugs of the kumho might self-clean better. But the toyo's would be great trail tyres, as well as better performing on the pavement than kumho's.

Anyway both of them is the same price basically, so when I ready to buy is just to choose whichever one in stock.


I do know one thing though.... Jhonnieblue real itching to take his 4x2 nav on a trail run... Hehehehe. De man catch the trail-fever!

you should look into obtaining an extra pair of rims with some MTs just for such runs! With that power + an auto transmission + MTs at the back, you should reach pretty far!

[lighthammer]

power is nothing eithout control.

[lighthammer]

jhonnie put me down for a set too pls .
we go roll with the toyo's man, no worries about sticking, you know I have yuh back and rollin with a tow strap.

Navara powah!!

[droppa]

dry season coming up man, so most places will dry up, the las cuevas trail does be nice and dry, the dunlops go make it for a while again........

[lighthammer]

^ I think I go save up for some BFG's. - I know the toyo's are a good deal, but the reviews online for the BFG's always say that the tread-life is awesome, 70,000+km's and more. The bfg's seem like the benchmark for treadwear life.

If not then is toyo's or Kumho's for me

Yea we need to complete that trail fellas... only RT and Jeremy made it to the end.

[Jeremy Mohd]

Actually we didnt... we made it far, but not the end.
The end was on down one more hill and onto the beach...

The problem would have been coming back up that hill if we did reach the beach.

[jhonnieblue]

lewwe wait till dry season
that way i could go too

[Rutless Tiida]

^^ To get stuck in the car park again!!!

[lighthammer]

^lol at jhonnie - yeah I'm sure the 4x2 nav could make it at least up to the grassy plateau at the top of the hill - once u get the toyo's.


I still wanna go see that beach - but once that trail dry we should have no problem this time to go up and down that track.

But just to be sure I gonna bring a shovel and a pick-axe and a hatchet..... Just in case


And once our search and rescue specialist, 3stage, can make it, we good to go.


We should name ourselves "Diesel Boyz B-spec"

[bleedingfreak]

Did u reach the house at the end of the road? I don't think u were close to the end. The road ends by a small house at the mid hill. There is a track which leads further along the pari a main road, which u were on and onto matelot. If u went down the big shale covered hill then u were about 3 corners away

[droppa]

the ole piper man with the two hounds told us dont go down the big hill, after the ole house that fall down.......we have to wait for dry season for real to complete this and many other runs......

and the guys who helped push us out said when it was dry a "turbo down drop low" bluebird fly tru the hills and made it to the beach....



guess he had toyos

[lighthammer]

^ fleck dat, dat "drop-low tobo-dong bluebird" cyah even drive the road to reach the trail....

Dem pipah men cuh real lie, but I glad they reach in time to push my big nav out, hehe.

[Rutless Tiida]

^^ PUSH!!!

We lift your a$$ out of de hole.

[lighthammer]

She's a big girl, isn't she?

[jhonnieblue]

lift?
was more like humping the poor nav yes
one big backside

[lighthammer]

^ poor girl felt violated....

Talk about popping the... Ok let me stop there, lol.

[droppa]
