Discussion
Asked about this on another thread but figured it'd be nice to discuss it further now I'm more sure of what it is I'm after.
As mentioned elsewhere I'm hoping to pick up a patrol in the next day or two, which I'll be wanting some big tyres for. I'm told on the owners forum that 33 inch should go straight on, or 35 inch with a 2 inch suspension lift.
Basically I want an off road biassed tyre that is still going to be pretty competent on the the road as it'll be spending a lot of time on the road. Temptaion is there to buy a set of wheels and tyres for off roading, but I'd like to keep to one set for now.
I've not really got any knowledge of the tyres in this size range in terms of who makes good ones.

I forgot to mention, most people seem to get 60k+ miles out of a set of BFGs, with many getting well over 100k, and only changing them then because the sidewalls are starting to perish! 
60k miles 
Fantastic stuff, can't believe I haven't bought one sooner
I used to get 15k out of a set of pirelli scorpions, which I used to find good on the road, average off road but never really gave them a hard life in the mud to try them properly, which i suspect would be their downfall. Cheers guys I'll have a look around for some prices
any other suggestions while I'm hunting?
