[QUOTE="nuggetino, post: 146016, member: 1884"] A brilliant article Dr.Duck! Thank you! Hopefully can come to a sound choice based on that information alone. It's just a bloody waste to stake new tyres and have to throw them in the bin. Should have seen the faces at the tyre shop when I came in with all these brand new staked tyres. It baffles me that the current run of the mill A/T's have not advanced to a design to allow sidewall repair. That in itself would be great. Pull out the stake and pop a plug in. Least I won't be wasting my money on another round of Radials and I hope some of you guys heading to WA might avoid the expense. I will add that in my case it wasn't rocky ground that caused my punctures or rough tracks but serious off-track bush bashing! The A/T's held up fine around Leonora for example as the terrain was fairly open and easy to avoid rubbing up against scrub. In Kalgoorlie you have no choice but to drive through it if you wanted to get anywhere. [/QUOTE]
