Looking for set michelin xzl for land rover

Yes- its the dogs danglies. DO NOT BOTHER with ANY other off road tyre, they ALL pale into insignificance in comparison. They are VERY hard wearing, and the best off road tyre short of the likes of simex which cant really be run on road. The only people who disagree tend to be those that havent experienced BFG muds. (i have tried almost every off road tyre- budget and otherwise- in the last 20 years, and wouldnt touch anything other than the BfG MT)

That's the new tread pattern is it?

It looks more chunkier than the old one did, I got I set of the old ones and am quite impressed just wish I'd wrote down the mileage I'd put them on at!

[tommer9]

Yes to both. The wear is phenomenal.

[mikecotterill]

In what way? The old ones seem to last very well? Do you think there any better off road?

[tommer9]

I have had about 36000 miles out of my mk1s on the front and they still have about half their tread left, and the mk2s look to bew doing the same. BTW I am usually loaded up, weighing approx 3.5-4 ton (oops!) and towing a 9" vermeer chipper.
