MT606 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 would anyone recommend using retreads for occasional laning and general road use? it would only be for a low powered/slow (max 60mph) vehicle. Now if I could find NDTs jeep or other for 15inch rims I would go for them. tar in advance....... sorry if in the wrong section btw...?

Zero-Five-Two Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Depends what you are fitting them to, as a personal preference I wouldn't use them on a front steer axle at all. Use of a retread on a rear/drive axle is common practice on a commercial vehicle. A full case remould as opposed to a tyre that has only a tread rebuild is better.

paulob1 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 modern remoulds are very very good and rarely fasil as they used to in the past...but they are not that much cheaper than say a set of big horns from maxxis which are the best tyres i have ever had in the snow and great in the mud and only cost 320 for a full set on 15 inch rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
