Had a couple slides on wet roads recently and they're showing signs of wear and tear from off road work, plus we're heading well into winter, so time for a change. Only about $500 extra for a set of Mickey's and with the awesome reviews and expected kms I should get from them it'll be interesting to see if that extra money is justified. Was going to go for their ATZ, which is a chunky tyre itself, but the MTZ is pretty darn sexy (and I do enough climbing around steep muddy tracks at this time of year to justify them)

they are a horny looking tyre those p3's....i like the mickey thompson lineup , bit of a shame i cant get my hands on them but them the breaks when you're the cooper people around town.
How did you find the Achilles? put a set on a mate and he reckons they are deadly in the wet
