All Terrain (AT) Tyres

When you are looking for a compromise between off-road capability and good on-road manners, an All-Terrain (AT) tyre is the way to go.

Wiroo

has anybody used Savero AT GT Radial tyres off-road? Have them on at the moment achieved 55,000 ks but mainly on the seal.

Had a set of M/T's on the van. This what happened to them at 80km/h on the highway! Personally I wouldn't use these tyres on a pushbike. Plenty of other better brands around.Image Could Not Be Found

Wirroo,
Yes, had them on a Cruiser, absolutely useless!! They just can't handle the heat on a dirt road. Go BFG'S or Wranglers. We drive all over Arnhemland on bad dirt roads and with these two brands we have no trouble.

OT, but who set up the 6x6? seen plenty of 6x4's but no 6x6 yet. Does the rear axle disconnect on the highway?
I know even the 6x4's are murder on tyres on the lazy axle.

It was made by a mob in Geelong using Toyota parts.
The rear 2 axles drive all the time .It becomes 6x6 when you engage the front axle .

I agree with all of the above. Had them on my 'cruiser when I bought it. They were hopeless in the mud, then I got 2 flats within 10 minutes on a slightly stony track. Got rid of them before they were even half worn.

Cheers

They were on my trailer when I bought it. Got two punctures on the way back home on the 10 km stretch of graded dirt roads! The bloke at the second hand tyre yard couldn't understand why I wanted to get rid of them with 95% tread left!

Waste of money and effort.
