I've got those Recip Trials on mine. The spare is brand new, never been on.
I've saved the seller for when I need replacements.
Might try going up to 31's though??

i've got the kingpin trackers on mine, they;re a good all rounder. yes they're cheap so i mind if i knack one.
good on the road, not very noisey and handle well.
they;re 'ok' offroad, not an extreme mud tyre and dont self clean very well as the tread is quite close together. i found them poor in the snow
good tyre if you do a mix of on/off road
if its mainly offroad then i would look at the kingpin highlander
mine are on 16" rims, 205/80/16 stand about 29" -
if anyone wants to buy them i'd let them go cheap

Ahh, i thought you might have had them John.. they seemed to cope very well at pea farm in that mud! or do you think without the transfer and difflock they wouldnt have coped so well??

thats what you need though Dave, the lowdown from someone thats used them!

John are you moving from 16's or just fancy new tread?
