265/75r16 is fairly well available, as everything its variable !
One thing I would say tho , is that you should train yourselves, and have the tools to remove and replace tyres yourself, decent strength tyres will be relatively easy to remove, its the big baggy soft sidewall ones that are the trouble, and you should not be using these anyhow. The harder part is reseating the bead on a tubeless tyre that is narrow on a wider rim . There are techniques to address this as well. Being able to change tyres on rims allows you to carry extra spare tyre without having to carry the weight of a second spare rim . The optimum is start tubeless , with plug kit , this will allow easiest repair (less hard work in hot/cold conditions) , and can often be done without even removing wheel, or even jacking vehicle. You can then get to point of fitting tube, and from there even sleeve and tube if very damaged. Its a balancing act between weight and redundancy and probabilities . Multiple punctures can occur , conversely its not unusual to drive halfway round the world without one (done it :thumbup1:) HTSH |

That's a bit Hyacinth Bucket style of comment! I suppose I also deserve to be castigated for driving, on several occasions, the distance of ca 400 km between Ajdabya and El Adem near Tubruq in about four hours. But I swear I did slow down on km 230 (the only bend in the road)! BTW, the UK has not the highest rate of violent crime in the developed world. But it has a high number of responsible drivers, like us. bier |
The statement
I love to drive offroad and also to push on dirt tracks (also with near 4to weight), our avaerage speed was 64 km/h :innocent: would suggest otherwise, as would an average speed of 64kmh. According to my dash display that's what I have averaged driving around the UK over the last 6 months or so, mostly on main roads and motorways, and I don't hang about. |
