Trewey Cockernee, Pasty munchin bastid. May 3, 2009 #2 You imagine correctly. They're probably Dumper tyres and only rated at 20mph too.
M mormond New Member May 4, 2009 #3 dumper tyres have so much grip you can easeily pop diffs, they spin up then sudenly grab
hughesy Well-Known Member May 4, 2009 #4 Would you really want to drive on the road with dumper tyres on?
J jolly77 New Member May 4, 2009 #5 if they are rated to only 20 mph, probably not. If it was only to drive the vehicle to off road sites, maybe. The speed rating issue kills the idea for me tho

hughesy Well-Known Member May 4, 2009 #6 The speed rating thing doesn't really cover it. Imagine doing say 40mph in the wet and having to do an emergency stop.
