any recommendations before i waste money on some crap ones:doh: , it will have to be a couple of budget ones so have been looking at the likes of the toyo tranpath 205/80 -16 , or the yokahama G012,they are mainly used for on road but nice to have an option.

cheers in advance peeps
 
My old RRC had Michelin M&S 205/70 x 16 (standard fitment) all it's life without any problems, why do u want 80's?

just replacing like for like , at the moment its running nankang wide conquerer a/t's and kumho venturer in that size , is there a good and valid reason for change to 205/70's apart from them having a thinner wall profile as to be honest it doesnt suffer from body roll , it wanders a bit at 65+ but apart from a persistant annoying squeak that i have yet to find the source of which i thought was a wheel bearing but jacked up all 4 wheels and no play top to bottom or side to side:confused:

The two std sizes (which give an almost identical rolling radius) are 205/80/16 & 235/70/16.


I can tell you that they handle MUCH better on 235's

okeydokey , so assuming the 235's are suitable without mods to the body , any particular makes and types to look to as a good allrounder , preferably that are no more than £60.00 ish each:D

Camskill do General AT²'s which are one of the best tyres you could fit, for £74 each..................and they'll last for years !!!!!
 
Don't mix ya tyres always try to have 4 matching tyres, If yu can. trying to get a landy to drive straight and hold the road properly is bad enuff without adding different tyre treads to the mix.
 
On me classic yeah, not quit that size though.Not terribly aggresive but seems ok.Great in the snow.Good on road surprised at the lack of road noise.

thats just what i needed to hear mate thank's for that,thats it tyres sorted now.
 
thank's for that goonarmy'there's quite a few good reviews for them and very few against so i think i'll bite the bullet and go ahead with these see how they go the price is quite reasonable too i think been quoted £395 for 5 delivered :) will post some pics and thoughts when i get them.
On rims?Whose that from?Good price that, paid 420ish for 4.
 
mine were 420 for 4 on rims for me classic from silverline4x4 IIRC.Delivered.Should have got 5 though.:scratching_chin:
