Hi Everybody,
The tyres on my Pajero is nearing the end of there lifes and I need to fit new ones. I would like to here what you guys think of the Continental WorldContact 4 x 4 tyres.
All my experience with Continetal tyre leaves only good memories.
I am using the Pajero on tar surfaces (90% of the time) and towing my modified Gysey (50% of the time).
I can fit the Contonetals (brand new) for 52% of the price for BFG tyres.
My Pajero is a 2003 3.2 Auto fitted with 15" rims. Looking at 275/75 x 15 tyres

If travels only include towing (dirt and tar) and normal driving and it never sees a serious trail then the continentals should be a good buy.
Hi bold4e
Ditto .....for 4e's suggestion.... I remember I had a set of Bridgestone Dueller H/T's on, before deciding I was going to do serious off-roading, and the SOFTER road tyre was super silent, had good grip, seemed to give better fuel consumption, was a fraction of the price of the serious mud-tyres I subsequently replaced with, and were not bad on mild-to easy gravel roads....
My 2c.... hope it helps some....

Attachments:
- With Bridgestone H/T's = quiet, softer, good grip and economical ride for tar use = suitable for up to easy gravel roads ( not good for deflated required, gravel/rock/ prolonged sand applications) = thinner none-reinforced
