I was actually looking at those tires when we went on the Klein Kariba trip and considered fitting them for the Sani trip, but now I don't know... looks like a rather expensive wheel decoration! Smile

Hey Marnus,
I'm going to use this tyre in Sani Pass!!!!
The only problem is the batch that was sent to ZA....
...and the SPEED!
Keep yourself limited to 130/140 Km/h and everything will be Ok....(I gess...rs)

I am not willing to take this type of risk with a tyre. The manufacturer should have his tyres retested and classified ito speed and load rating at the Department of Transport.

In the meantime I will use tyres that have a proven track record.....
