Anyone tried these tyres?
See
Continental Tyres web site.
They seem to be a fairly recent release. They get some favourable user reviews overseas, but haven't seen any magazine tests or reviews yet. Would be interested to hear any experiences with them.

They are like Dunlops, I have seen better rubber on a condom.

I understand the OE ones on the Navara were Continental ContiTrac, which is a different model (and more of a highway tyre than an AT).

Spot on Des....pick my D40 up shod with BFG ATs as part of the deal. Just didn't see the point of running HT tyres on a ute that was going to spend some significant time off the bitumen.

Des,
I fitted a set on 18" rims just before Christmas. I am happy with them so far, minimal road noise, no aquaplaning issues in the wet. I had to take them as there are very few AT choices available for my vehicle and there was no stock of Pirelli Scorpion AT around.
Tried therm briefly in mud but not yet on sand or corrugated roads.
