How much, ha ha. I will be looking to get them in 31" as i am looking for more flex than anything. I will check with National tires first and see what they have in stock.

Cheers guys.

Alright mate, forgot to ask you Nasser. Do you have the GPS points for National Tires?

Cheers mate.

Sorry Tintin, I don't have the way point.....but you don't require it. Their location is easy to find.

Once you hit the road into Musaffah, take right, you will then be driving parallel to the big industrial yards that face the sea. After the first round-about, drive straight, then to your left, you will see the car washing stations all in one block, National Tires will be the last shop to your left before the roundabout.

Excellent, thanks Nasser. I'll take a look tomorrow probably.

Well guys, I ended up going with the Kumho Road Venture M/T in 31x10.5x15 and let me say. This is how the ZJ should have felt out of the factory. The tires are a little noisey, but they feel great, and the rig handles a lot better now with the new wheels, and tires.

Very impressed, and I got a set of 5 for AED2500. What a deal, I am well impressed.

Cheers guys.

MT Tires are great, the Baja tires are a great offroad tire as far as I am aware. If they are under 32" they will be ok with the 2" lift on a TJ. Any bigger and you may feel some rubbing.
I have a little rubbing on my ZJ with 31" but that is because the bumper is drooping a little. I just have to cut the bumper a touch to clear the tires.

Thanks

Same here, you never know how long they have been used for. And they may tell you only used for six months, but ow many kilometers did they travel in those six months?

I still love mine, even though I have only drove on them for half an hour.
