    What size tyres for off road?.

    i reckon dumpers in the wet, but maxicross in the dry works best. Dumpers do have issues on sideslopes, but that can be corrected with a chainsaw... :D neither have been banned from our club events...:cool: and 235/85/16 is a pretty good size, not so big you need lifts and beat oiut the arches...

    What size tyres for off road?.

    personaly i like either my 33"/9.5" dumper tyres for wet clay like ground, and my 36"/11" maxicross tyres for dryer stonier sites... oh did you mean tyres that will go on the road aswell? well simex's look like theyre a good medium, but your never going to get the best mud tyre that can be used...
