biggles Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Has anyone used these? Was looking at the 35x10.5x16, gather they are a bfg km2 copy, other than that can't find out much about them. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 haven't them, but this might give you more info http://www.fedima4x4.es/neumaticos-fedima-f-power.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve200TDi Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Hi, I have a set of 35 x 10.5 x 16. They actually measure 33 x 10.5 x 16 so there more like a 285/75/16 kind of height but in 10.5 inch width. They haven't been tested off road yet as we're trying to get them balanced for on road use. We've added balancing beads, but there's still wobble at 60mph. I know there a big tyre and are remoulds but still it would be good if they were a bit more civilised on the road!

biggles Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 Thanks for that, fedima must have a thing about 35 inch tyres not being 35 inches. Be interested to know if you sort out the balancing problem, as that would put me off them, wouldn't have thought a 33x10.5 would take that much to balance?

sean f Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I looked at them when they were first advertised, spoke to the importer who had been told they were on the same origional tyre as the sirocco's so would likely end up about 36" diameter. I put off ordering any until he actually had some in front of him and had personnally put a tape measure across one. Glad I did, he gave me a ring when they came in and was not happy that they were so much undersize (apparently the tyre size regulations are pretty loose and even more so for remoulds so these and the sirocco's both comply with the nominal 35" size even though they are nearly 4" different!). I didn't order any in the end as there are other 33" tyres about. Still after a 35x10.5x16 tyre with something less agressive than a simex style tread (12.5" width is to wide for some of the lanes round here).

biggles Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Same problem I've got with lanes, why I was after another set of tyres with a width of 10.5, simex silverstone are a tad to aggressive, from what I can find out there does not seem to be a 35 inch m/t tyre in a 10.5 width, tho I stand to be corrected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean f Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Not sure why those tyres have been listed??. Both good tyres but neither available in 35 10.5 16 sizes. Finding 33 inch tyres or 35 inches tyres which are 12.5 inches wide is easy, the problem is trying to find a tyre in 35 10.5 16 (or similar) in anything other than a simex or similarly agressive tread pattern.

biggles Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 What I said, there does not seem to be a 35x10.5 either 15 or 16, I seem to recall swampers came in a 34 10.5 and I'm sure jungle Trekkers had a 34 10.5, neither of which you seem to be able to get anymore, and the stt is pants in any flavour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Why the need for 35" tyres? Fair enough if it's for pay & play or competing, but for general use and laning I would think they'd be a bit big to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
