I bought my Ln167r with a set of 33 inch Comforser 3000 muddies. They have a good aggressive tread pattern. I think Huntsman 4x4 stock them.

I've recently purchased a couple of new muddies from BlackLion, called Voracia, or something. Haven't had these off road yet, but liking the tread pattern.

Both brands handle well on road and aren't overly noisy.

hey fellas,
I also have comforser muddies on my KUN26R, 30,000km on and 40% left. 50/50 on/off road.
handle everything fairly well!
as they are directional, swap the fronts on the back every service, and that will keep the noise even lower.
