Just poking around bored at work today, and came across a pretty massive amount of these rally tires that are actually available in small sizes for mini's. Seems like theres even some that are DOT rated. Has anyone tried these with any success? Grabbed a bunch of links to help you get the idea. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/competition-tyres/dunlop-sp85-gravel-tyre http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/competition-tyres/maxsport-rb1-rally-tyre http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/competition-tyres/kumho-ecsta-r800-tyre http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/competition-tyres/maxsport-hakka-2-tyre-155-70-r13 http://www.jonnichols.com/a035.html Most of these tires are available in Canada/US. Just the websites from the UK seem to do a much better job of organizing. Yes, I know you are all going to say "Just get ATV tires" but I'm sure as many others have found they just don't stand up to any pavement driving. And I refuse to drive out with one set of tires, then get all muddy changing them.
I have a set of the dunlops with a tread about like your link on my little van. They do seem to be a very good all around tire and wear well on hard surfaces too. I have no snow here, but during the rainy season, there is plenty of mud to play in along with the hard surfaces. The grip seems very good on wet hard surface, we do have both Cement and Paving for hard surface. I am located in the Philippines. Fred
