Sounds like you want All Terrain tyres rather than Mud Terrains to be honest. If you don't plan to off-road, they will be better in 90% of situations. You wouldn't need the hassle of changing wheels, just run them all the time.

There should be lots of cheap AT tyres about in a rural country like NZ.

Be that as it may my point still stands, the carcass of the tyre is already been used and no matter how carefully applied the selection process is there is no way of knowing what happened to it prior to being retreaded or remoulded.

I have the AT Insa there ok but wouldn't get them again, they suck off road bind up with mud and useless in minuets. There on my list to change. Plus sick of the looks every time I go to my local tyre shop to balance and the half ton of lead that goes on
