Recomendations for 4x4 tyres

*Phoenix* · Postby ***Phoenix*** » May 5th, 2009, 10:04 am

Tires working real fine.... Not a single complaint... Nice traction on Wet Roads and off Road. Sweet response too.... I love them. Plus they look so beefy and rough.

I chose the Toyo Proxes S/T tyres for its high ratings in wet traction and hydroplaning resistance. Handles as advertized, but a little on the noisy side after just six months.

Will b checking Mileage Mack on Saturday for the Open Country A/T

Checked the following options in Couva today

Ironman Electra PM66 (or 88, can't remember) $850.00
Owner of tyre shop said it was an A/T tyre although I did not A/T written anywhere on the sidewall. Looked more like total lugs pattern to me
Getting these in 265/70

Sumitomo Serengeti A/T - $900.00
Getting these in 265/70 and 275/70

Dunlop Grandtrek A/T2 - $900.00
Getting these in 265/70

Been advised by the guys @ L200 Owners club that I can safely run 275/65

Wagon_r, how those Dunlops handling ?

Where did you price these?
And does anyone have feedback on the performance of these tires?

Also....seeing that we on the topic of tyres and tyres are mounted on rims.
I am looking for 16" rims for me 'Lux! Finding that to be quite a challenge. In case you're wondering why I don't get larger rims (as everyone keep asking me that), I really don't want the ride to get much rougher than it already is. So suggestions on where I can get okay looking rims?

venum · Postby **venum** » June 18th, 2009, 12:48 pm

opposite teh quick shoppe cross crossing

think teh name of teh place is Tyre centre

Mileage Mack has some nice rims

Dean's wheels

mag wheel center pointe-a-pierre road

Ramrattan's tyre shope and rims place in vistabella has some nice rims too

some place name Andy's in the east has a father's day sale

^ I ent have nutting new for you

check yuh FB wall, I posted what Mileage Mack had punk

essentially they do not have any A/T or M/T in 16" right now

no Toyo Open Country

they getting Kumho next week

will pass and see what they have when they get stock

venum · Postby **venum** » August 10th, 2009, 6:06 pm

Getting BF Goodrich A/T for $1262.70 each

After fitting and balance they working out $5222.80

255/70/16

Reason that I posted the 255 is because they looked as broad as my current Roadstone 265's

The BFG 265's looked like 275's Hercules(which are too broad and touch the front of my truck - discovered after fit testing)
