MAXXIS 751 or Sumitomo SL850

Postby bobbyd on Sun May 24, 2009 6:07 pm

I was hoping to get some feedback from anyone who might be running these tyres,
They seem to be the sort of thing I'm after regarding the type of driving we do down here.

Im thinking Maxxis, they have bigger range of sizes, sumitomo only had 205/70r/15.
maxxis 215/75r/15 look like the go
Overall dia up, fuel consumption down
