These are on ebay and would suit people after a cheap muddy in a standard size. Hopefully he will get enough sales to keep them in stock.

the issue i see there is that theyre a retread... i wouldnt trust them for any sort of road use personally.

the best (most agressive) small muddy is a 215/75 bfg km2 - but they come at a price.

x 2, I dont like retreads on the road personally but I see no reason why these shouldnt be ok in the bush. Our retreading processes in Australia are shit compared to the rest of the world, My old man was looking at importing some Malatesta tyres into Oz and these things are fkn awesome and used extensively in other parts of the world for racing. They are also one of the few tyre companies that warrant their sidewalls and treads against rupture and staking. Their factory id more like a surgery that a retread factory.

retread, remould same shit different smell. It's all about putting tread onto an old tyre carcass.

They'd be fine for off road use, better for your wallet and because your re-using it's better for the environment.

I use these on my race car, very good grip. I paid under 50 pounds (UK) each about $85 each. I give them thumbs up. They are also a directional tyre.
