| Post subject: | What kind of "chunky" tires |
I soon have to order new tires for my "raid" 2CV. The idea with the car, is that it has to be raid proof, light reinforcement, chunky tires, lighten, and rough look. I would have loved to put Michelin X M+S 89 on the car, but I think 135 is to narrow. Vredestein Snow Classic 155 R15 is so far my answer (a good friend have been using these tires for years), but I know that it is old pattern (as the Michelin). What kind of tires are you "off roaders" using? |

155 is at least 5% more circumference than 135, make sure you've got a short gearbox or powerful engine when going off-road |

I've been running Vredestein for years. 3 trips to the Arctic (in winter) on them and over 100,000 miles of road/off road use.. |

No 100 000 miles! I get over 50 000 miles per set! tek wrote: Hi Mark, over 100 000 kms - how many sets of tyres? Bye, Thorsten |
