Default kingpin tyre review.

hello,dont know if anyone will be interested but i thought i would write a mini tyre review with pics for those that have never tried kingpin tyres incase anyone fancies a budget tyre/s in the future.

i purchased 4 kingpin a/t trackers and had them fitted this morning and have just done a mixture of road and off road driving and here is my opinion on these tyres.

on the tarmac these tyres are very quiet and smooth which surprised me a lot and the grip in the dry is very good,they have also raised the height of the truck by approximately 1 inch according to before and after measurements which is usualy the case with most remoulds i think.the tread pattern is very similar to BFG`s (pic below)

off road i tried them in a mixture of thickish mud,sand and grass on steepish inclines and shallow rutts and they provided more than enough grip for what i needed,they also self cleaned quickly without having to spin the wheels up too much.

i am very impressed with these tyres for the price and will consider them again next time.
please note this is just my opinion and i have compared them to my previous tyres which were pirelli scorpion st`s.

hope this may be of some use to somebody in the future.

thanks,
paul.
