Your probably right Jack and the fact that most of the off road tyres are remoulds would suggest that I'm just being a bit paranoid, but I've seen remoulds that have just seperated completely from the tyre carcas and I'd think about that every time I went round a corner with the kids in the back. Still either way it's plenty of cash and I do want some good off road tyres, need to have a serious think and do a bit more research before me birthday.
