Another vote for KM2 BFG's.

Yes BFG's and you will get a 100,000ks from them easily! Michael

Muds!! 80,000Ks

Cheers for the reply. In that case the bfg's sound good. They are 90 bucks a tyre cheaper than the other two.

It might be interesting to know that the Indian Kenda company now owns Cooper.

There are plenty of good tyres on the market and from companies with a long standing reputation.

BFG have has some issues least of which has been patchy supply.
But their Km2 still have a big following.

Copper are a love em or hate em brand, there have been some complaints and warranty issues. There are plenty out there who will never buy another cooper tyre.

Cant remember any dirt on Micky...but they are a small brand that does not own any factories in its own right.

A lot of people giving good reports about the MAXXIS mud terains and all terains....maxxis is a brand of the Ching Shin Rubber company...one of the worlds largets and longest standing tyre manufacturing(owns factories) companies making everything from bicycle tyres to huge mining tyres.
I ran ching shin tyres on my pushbike back in the 70s and had a good run out of maxxis light truks till I discovered the michilins.

There are a few very much taken by the "General" brand. "General grabbers" have a following in some circles.

Both Perelli and Yokahama have a very good value for money all terain that revews very well against the trendy brands.
I'm running perelli scorpons in all terain at the moment and am very happy with them.

Then there are the second string brands and brands that do not have a profile in this country ..some of them are putting out some very good value for money tyres

There are a lot of good tyres out there..if you buy the fashionable brands you will pay more than is necessary.

cheers

Just clear up the above information Kenda is a Taiwan company not Indian the same Maxxis they major opposition it the tyre industry. Kenda have been producing tyres for 60 years and are o/e on Honda in Japan and also supplying tyres to GM in the states

Regards

The point being that KENDA a brand that is viewed as low rent in this country owns ( recently baught) COOPER a brand that is viewed as premium.

There are a lot of brands that are not well regarded in this country that have better actual track record than some that are very well regared by some.

cheers

I will second Jack here, after having Cooper STT's then KM2's, which at half worn could not be kept balanced, I changed to TOYO MT open country. So far I have found them a very good tyre, good traction wet or dry, balanced up very well and well wearing.
I also would not change them for anything else.
Not sure about Tyre Power only though as I got mine from an independent tyre company.
