HI guys.....
Got out with guys from work to Lake Lyle, Mount walker etc this friday. I was running my new MTZs for the second time in the bush on 18psi. Some spinning happened on Mt Walker and on a small climb after the river crossing, But nothing I would call extreme spinning. Today I was looking at the tyres and discovered severe chipping and cutting on the tread blocks on the outer tread blocks of the rear tyres.
I had STTs before and ran them on 18psi but never had such extreme chipping. My JK has only mild mods with 2.5 inch lift, Mopar front bar and AEV rear bar. I was carrying 1 passenger and about 70 Kilos in tools, food supply etc. I do not have any racks, drawers etc to add weight. Tyres are 285/70/17 MTZ with only 5000 Ks on them. Cant understand what I am doing wrong. Can I have some advice from the brain bank whether to increase the tyre pressure or take it further down for terrain like Lake Lyle.....
Cheers
Mani
