al4x Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 no problems getting AT2's with event tyres round here booked some on Monday and they were fitted tuesday. Having had them a few days they are worth waiting for, no extra road noise compared to road tyres and seem quite impressive off road so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guss109 Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Looked at event tyres but they don't cover the north east of Scotland. But getting an ok deal on the other tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Kumho tyres are OK - I've often fitted them as one of the cheaper options, but never used their off-road varieties. I bought a couple of "Infinity" tyres off fleabay for the Jimny, and those have a decent chunky tread which also performs well on-road. From memory, they were £100 for a pair delivered. Paid the local garage £15 to fit them for me. They're doing well, and i've been in a couple of really boggy fields with them so far, and managed to get out again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul99 Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I don't know about their road or AT tyres but the Kumho Road Venture MTs are what we have on our fourtrak and they seem pretty popular among farmers around here for their off road run arounds too. Off road it's hard to see how you can get a better tyre unless you start looking at cleats but yet on road they are remarkably quiet. Our only concern was how long they will last considering we're more on road more than off but they are now over 12months old (not that we or the previous owner have done mega road miles in it) but they are still looking like brand new :blink:. When we bought the truck we planned to get a second set of wheels to put some ATs or road tyres on but given how good the tyres are, how well they've lasted and the price to replace them we haven't bothered. I got no doubt that they will come into their own when the snow and ice hits and when they eventually wear out (which is going to take a while) we'll be buying another identical set.

4eyes Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Have a peek on here - http://www.camskill.co.uk/ I have found them to be the cheapest place for road tyres, though I cannot comment on off-road ones. Never bought any, so you be the judge... All I do is get them delivered and bung the local spanner monkey £15 cash a pair to fit them as overtime.
