Anyone got experience of these tyres on their D3?

I’ve got a spare set of wheels and looking at putting some AT’s on them. Don’t want to go mad money wise and came across these 255 60 R18 112H XL Maxxis Bravo Series AT771 £421 for a set inc delivery from Demon Tweeks. Has anyone used these and if so feedback welcome please. Thanks.

Thanks. What would you recommend then as I need for field work as well as reasonable on road. 👍

I've had those Maxiss 771's for over 4 years. No grip issues whatsoever. They seem to wear well too. If but then again. Macias are a massive world wide brand just not widely know in the UK. Just 'cause you got the power... that don't mean you got the right.

Same tyres are a few quid less (inc. delivery) from Camskill:

Personally, I would spent a little bit more and get the Michelin Latitude Cross or if you need more off-road ability the Pirelli AT+ both of which are tried and tested.

The old faithful GG AT3 is another option, I have them in 20" on my FFRR at the moment, but I'm always wary of their sidewall strength on such heavy vehicles.

Thumbs Up

ETA- These look good for the money, but I've not read any reviews:

2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE
