You dont say what grabbers you've got on. If they're ATs, you wont notice a huge difference unless its very muddy.
The KL71s are reputed by members who've got them fitted to be reasonable on the tarmac too, unlike some. They also look pretty funky

hi i have at2 .if im only going to notice a little difference ill keep my G/G s on and perhaps go the aggressive muds on another set of wheels and change them once or twice a month.Originally posted by Apache View PostYou don't say what grabbers you've got on.

I would try silverline and camskill before you pay £400.
Spen £150 more if their 33s and get BFG muds they will last three times as long and are as quite on the road as you GG ATsBrianComment

If you're gonna have a second set of wheels for muds, just buy some cheap remould muds and go really agressive with something like a Baja Claw copy - no point in spending an arm and a leg if you are gonna play hard with them and risk ripping out tread blocks
If you've got a decent jack and an impact wrench, it only takes ten minutes to change the wheels, and you have the benefit of having top notch mud tyres which will take you through anything, and AT or road tyres which will give you decent handling / low noise / better fuel consumption on the road, and let you go summer laning.
As my truck is my daily drive at the mo, I'd NEVER EVER run aggressive muds on the road again. Way to costly / horrible to drive. I'd suggest that having two sets of wheels is a cheaper option over the long term too.
There's only two reasons for running muds on the road.
1) You're too bone idle to change them - which probably covers the fat b@stards on this forum
2) You think people are impressed

there was a set of 50% worn 33 KL71's yesterday for OK money I think, though if you're not lifted yet of course they'll be no good to you at all!
They are great on the road, much better than my old AT's wereComment

Im going back to the world of 4x4's in the next several weeks hopefully!
I've been looking at my options an im not sure what i wanna go for!!
Part of me is tempted with General grabber AT's. I plan to go green laning with the new truck as its going to be pretty awesome looking but have tyres that fit properly in the wheel arches aswell!
It all depends on budget really!! The BFG MT is pretty much THE best option! They last, They're quiet and are pretty good in most conditions.Comment

I dont think its a mondeo jag, For a start its an XJ not an X/S type.Originally posted by PDR View PostAre you fed up of your Montego-jag already???
An no im not!
Its a really, really nice car!! I just want a truck.
I cant fit jack all in the boot of the jag, So amps etc for the band stuff! An i still make a large portion of my ££ from scrap metal (im not a pikey.. not a proper one anyway!) an i dont want it in the boot of the jag an well.. i couldnt fit enough in to make it worth while.
So another truck would be good!
Its just going to be a bit 'different'
