Yeah! Have had these as 195 on my Jimnny and 215 on my Sammi. For the price they are ok but they wear quite quickly and are noisy. Have now changed to Kumho KL71s on both cars and they are definitely quieter and seem to be wearing better. Price wise they are ok too. I bought mine from Camskill who were happy to deliver to France at a good price.

Kumhos kl71 always seem to get good reviews for being a good mud tyre for road use aswell. Well priced also.

I run Kumhos and they are good on the road and ok in mud but fill up and don't clear well in thick mud so become like slicks.

They are a good allrounder but don't excel at anything.

I'm thinking of something more aggressive but if you just want something a bit better than at's but good on the road the are ideal and not too dear.

yes, kumho 195s...................best compromise. They get a bit clogged in clay but otherwise, brill. !!!!
BONUS.....they keep the gear ratios about the same.
