M005 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I used to run 255 85 16 BFG MT's on my 110 and last 90, which were great, however I can't seem to find that size anymore? Is there a new preferred size for standard suspension set up? Also I notice Insa tyres are new to the market and seem to be copies of the BFG tread pattern, do they perform the same? The 90 will only be doing ~ 2-3k miles a year so on road manners aren't high up the list of priorities and I used to do ~18-20k per year on the BFG MT's with no issues. Thanks.

They are still the size of choice for many of us Mark, you should be able to find them - there is a new 'KM2' pattern out now, a little different to the one you recognize.

adam300Tdi90 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 If you don't mind the loud road hum that the aggressive Insa special tracks give, then I would highly recommend them. Much cheaper, better off road IMO, and far more chunky looking (if thats your thing). However, they do wear quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they do wear quickly. we have two hybrids in work , one with kl71s and the other with insa turbos , they usually go out playing together and the insas are wearing out alot faster. it it the tarmac journeys ??
