My Defender (pic in profile) wears Goodrich 285/75 Mud Terrains, a bit worn but perfectly legal and not worn to below the 'change now' ridges. I was driving down a dual carriageway at about 35 mph, went over a bump and BANG! My right rear tyre blew-out in a big way, like someone had taken a saw and tried to cut off all the tread.
Anyway, my local tyre place does not stock Goodrich, but are offering me 285/75r16 M/T Bridgestones.
Any views on the Bridgestones? Good, worse, same as Goodrich?
Cheers!
PS - changing those b
ds, on a busy dual carriageway, on a hill, with a hi-lift jack, is a pretty good work-out!
PPS - although most of my driving is on tarmac, when I go off road it is in a big muddy slippy way so prefer MTs.
