Hi All,

Im sure that this would have been done in the past but the search engine came back saying that it didn't recognise '27' for some reason. Anywho, is there a list of available 27" tyres (for 14" rims) on this site at all? Preferably with $ and peoples opinion of the tyre? As you may have guessed Im looking for some big boots for my brumby

Thanks for opinions and/or any help,
Corax.

27x8.5x14 Maxxis Bighorns LT

27x8.5x14 kumho mt

Are two I know of

TOONGA

27x8.50R14 NANKANG A/T

They're the ones I use on my RX, I'm pretty happy with them, bit better road grip than the Kumhos. I get them from Bob Jane, fitted and balanced for $149 each.
Bob Jane also sell the Kumho Muddies described above for $169.

Cheers,
Tom.

EDIT: Don't know what prices they'll be in WA, I get mates rates too but you could probably tell them you've had them before at that price.

+1 on the Nankang, I have them on the front of the L, good hard sides of the tread, meaning the bad camber has more meat to chew on. LT construction. I also got mine from Bob Jane, price seems about what I paid also. Was a special order that came from Newcastle.

I can only compare to the Nankang Wild Conqueror Super Tripper's that I have on the rear. Used 6 of these WCST through the years. Have not noticed any significant wear or noise between the two types.

i got Maxxis Bravo MA-751... 27/8.5R14LT
$175 at Jax Quickfit.. others have said they got them cheaper..

Ouch

If you are going to use 14 inch rims I would go with 205/70/14's or 215/65/14's

I have the 215/65/14's and Ive only had my brumby bogged once.
