tyres...good or bad ?

Spender46 · Sep 25, 2011

I bought my bus about 4 months ago now and I was wondering if anyone has had dealings or knowledge of the brand of tyres I have on....ACCELERA IOTA .? Im not looking at changing them because there's plenty of meat left on them. Im just curious to know if they're any good or not especially with winter coming on....cheers guys..

It looks as though their decent ones, but if your are 'slick tread' like the ones im looking at then they will be quite useless if it does start to snow

scanning around the net, it would appear they're not that good especially in the wet. So I imagine even worse in wet & muddy & snow etc....... Although I have no personal experience of them but with winter coming I wouldn't hold out much hope

general grabbers (the new AT, not the AT2)

Once my scorpions wear out that's what's going on mine

Their quite knobbly, but one hell of a good looking/performing tyre, when it snows or in the mud

BFG M/T, Cooper Discoverer STT and Goodyear Wrangler all very good tyres

I have Cooper ATR on mine, give a good ride in the dry and are very good in the winter.

I agree they have a crap rating . I bought my l322 in march and it has a set fitted to the front . I replaced the rears with wranglers as they were worn out . The Iotas have performed ok so far and that includes so heavy rain work as well . I don't suppose they would be up to much offroad and against the wranglers they do look very road biased but after 7 months motoring I will keep them fitted until they need changing and banking the money in the RRRP (range rover repair fund) , bound to need it soon.
