Kumho Offroad Tyres ?
Anyone ever try these , looks like a pretty decent mud tyre , speed rating is a little low but loading is ok.I don't know what sort of construction , wall , ply etc they have .

I seem to remember the Bowler Nemesis was on the Kumho stand at the Autosport show the other week. Don't know whether it normally runs Kumho tyres, but if it does, they can't be bad.

FWIW Khumo tyres have an excellent rep, in Australia, a good tyre at value for money.Did you think I would leave you crying,

I can go just as fast with 7.

I have one more avenue to close off so to speak RD and if that doesn't work out Ill be giving them a shot on the 17's.Mind you we dont get much oppurtunities to use OR tyres over here so was interested to see if there were any who have tried them long term .
Thanks for the info

Try mailing them Tintenter as they may have.I mailed them about Cooper STT's , not shown on their website and they mailed me back 5 mins later saying they had them , 145 each inc VAT.Delievry was only £2.50 per tyre to Ireland ( ).I should have asked if they stock MTR 19's & 18's

I can't even find anybody that lists them in 18" either.

NICE looking tyre I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
