Hi all, has anyone ran them on a 120 series prado? I have mickey thompson mtz's on it at the moment (which are just legal in tread) but we've got 110000 klms out of them (all hiway use). I've heard that certain tyres perform better on certain vehicles, has anybody also found this to be true? The mickey's have also never ever been rotated (yeah i know this sounds bad) but the front and back have worn perfectly. I am in the next couple of days putting new tyres on and can't unfortunately afford $415 / tyre for the mickeys and was just wanting to see if anyone could help with selection for what runs well on a prado

hi - just one question ' if you are mostly driving them on Hi-Way and roads - why you go for MUD type and not going to MAXXIS 980 which is AT with much better protection on the side-walls' much less noisy and less fuel consumption ''' for light snow they should be good enough too

How are the tyres on the road if wet?

Hi Marty
When they had plenty of tread i had no issues. Now can be a bit slippery but i'm almost down to their last bit of life.
They're fine. I've never had them ever slip out on me and you feel safe on them. Corner sensibly though like you would in any situation. Remember that 4wd's have a higher centre of gravity, so drive accordingly. If you're an impatient careless driver and corner hard & fast in your 4wd then you will be testing their limits. But with normal driving you won't skid or slip out on them. Under brakes they're fine unless you slam them on of course without the aid of ABS. but that's just common sense. They're a good tyre. Anyone who blames them for inadequacies either has issues with their front end (steering components) or needs to address their driving habits.

Hi Sebstian, I would buy the AT980 as they are better for highway driving. The Big Horns are a little loud on the road but unreal on the dirt... Hope this helps.
Thanks adam
Hi; I had just now purchased the 980 which is same cost but but better fit road' light dirty and good enough for my daily off-road work ' they have very good profile now (like BF), better side walls, much less noisy and less fuel consumption '' except for very deep MUD i do very good offroad job with them - good luck
