Cheers A.B., Actually I spoke to a tyre dealer yesterday (24th Jan) and he spruiked about the Pirelli's being great on 'tarmac', I didn't know any better, only knowing he's a salesman and he had a 'set' of Pirelli's in stock. He went on to say that he sells a lot of the Pirelli's (?), I don't know.
Considering that here in Australia the road network is nealy all tarmac and to really get off into the 'Bundu' you have to travel and then what you travel on is 2nd class roads, which dare I say a majority of 2WD cars could (and have) travelled.
So, to get a real sense of proportion, tyres, predominately in Australia have a 80% tarmac usage and when offroad, are on dirt/gravel/sand mix. For someone to say otherwise is really 'winding up' a story.
