Great vid, I do have one question tho that wasn't covered. If I buy these tyres will my van start? I'm having a minor engine issue, keep getting a warning light on the dash and the van won't run for some reason? Must be new tyres needed... surely??

Super useful video. A point to note for viewers, the Snowflake on the tyre means they’re usable in Germany in winter. Many 4 season tyres aren’t actually legal in winter in Germany as they don’t have the snowflake symbol so haven’t met some EU standard. I run 15 inch Vredestein which are properly 4 season rates and are great, BUT 16 inch is the way to go for all the benefits John mentioned. John, you just cost me a grand 😉

Often stated on forums are that dedicated Camper tyres should be chosen (like Vancocamper from Continental) because they are designed to withstand being stood unused at home or in storage for long periods of time. Now I know that isnt a problem for full timers but do you think it might be an issue to consider with these tyres for the more occasional users out there?

Can you up the tyre pressure and park on tyre savers to reduce flat spots? What sort of mileage do you do John? I suspect none have done much in the last year anyway!
@tonytca9439
@tonytca9439 3 жыл бұрын
Average daily users very unlikely the tyres to last 10 years which is where most tyres are past their use by date. To enforce this i read recently that 7.5t and over must now have the tyres replaced at 10 years regardless of the tread due to rubber perish increasing the chance of a blowout. In any case its very bad for any vehicle to sit idle. Everything made of rubber on a 2001 or older very low mileage motorhome is trashed. The tyres, suspension bushes, bump stops, steering gators, drive shaft boots and timing belt and aux belts etc. Not to mention probably everything else has rusted from lack of use.

Debated about these tyres for a long time and then looked at Maxxis wormdrive 245/75/16 for my rear wheel drive sprinter. They are good with a slightly more aggressive tread as I wild camp mostly and cheaper after all I'm a pensioner. However if I outlive these tyres I will try the Goodrich KO2. Good video with tech advice.

Always good to hear a first hand review, especially on tyres. I had 99% decided to switch to Michelin Agilis Alpin for next winter up here in the Scottish Highlands as I've watched videos and read reviews from quite a few Camerpvan'ers over in the colder Euro Winter climates suggesting they were up there with the best snow handling tyres during their Ski season..... and now you go and throw this spanner in the works haha. I've used BFGs extensively during my 12 years living in South Africa, on 4x4 Toyota bakkies and an off road trailer, covering many 1000's of miles and they never missed a beat either on road or off road, however for sub zero / snow conditions up here in Scotland I was wondering if the Alpins would be a better choice......... decisions decisions ;) At least I have a few months before deciding, and as the current original Agilis on our Hymer Ayers Rock have only covered 5k miles there is no rush. Maybe I will swap to a couple of Heat Lithium first, an easier choice haha. Cheers, John.

We've had front wheel drive motorhomes for about 16yrs and only had to be towed off twice. If the grass or ground is wet or soft i always Reverse as all of your driving forces are on the front wheels if you drive forward all the weight transfer goes to the back and allows the front wheels to slip so if you Reverse the weight transfer stays over your driven wheels.

I can vouch for the strong side walls of these tyres, sorry "bad ass tyres". I have the same tyres on a Toyota Landcruiser Colorado, the truck weighs 2250 Kgs. I came out one morning and spotted one tyre was a bulging a just bit, I went to work and checked the pressures later on the way home. The one that was a bulging a bit was at 5 psi (I found a nail in the tread) but due to the stiffness of the sidewalls it didn't look properly flat. And it didn't wander or wallow when I drove it. Great tyres they last for ever, I've easily had well over 80,000 miles out of a set, and I don't hang around when driving. They grip like a certain waste substance stuck to a blanket, dry or wet. Good off road in the mud good in the snow, and even with the mid range aggressive tread no noticeable road roar. I've towed all sorts of vehicles out of muddy fields, a Peugeot estate car with caravan attached, Ducato van well loaded with tools Transit camper, all sorts. I towed one muppet who assured me his handbrake was off on his Transit 500 yards across a field with his rear wheels not turning. I didn't bother to stop, I had enough grip to cope! Great fun, great dollops of mud flying all over the place.

I have a front wheel drive van-renault master 3 lwb, and wanted to know if i just need decent tyres to drive in the peaks in winter, france and swizerland. (apologies if i have missed this, and that i have only recently bought and converted a camper). this will be good news as i cant afford a 4wd van!

Thanks for the video. Still can't decide. Currently running 15" Mich Agelis Camping which are rubbish on anything worse than dry grass. And we get about 32mpg on the motorway doing average 60mph with a coach built narrower than yours. Was looking at the Goodrich big ass tyre but concerned about the wet performance in tyre tests. They claim not great at stopping in the wet. But the alternative like a Cross Climate isn't made as a camper tyre, only a van tyre and so might not cope well with the extra weight and irregular use. Decisions decisions. ......

hi john. just had these fitted to my burstner harmony line 744 at elite tyres in reading.i have noticed that the motorhome seems to wander from side to side when it reach approx 50 mph.i have spoken the the guys at elite tyres and they have said to reduce the tyre pressure to 60 on the back and 55 on the front do you think this would reduce the side to side movement. the tyres are at 75 psi at the moment on all four tyres.

Woooooowwww. You don’t inflate these tyres that much. If you watch the video I explain all this in detail. Bring your pressures down before you cause an accident.

If I wanted to drive on Spanish motorways down south in August (it was 46 deg C a few weeks ago) will these tyres cope with the heat?

From 15” to 16” with the new tyres gave us about an inch extra ride height 👍🏻

@@johnmandy Don't often make comments but watch all your videos. Was going to buy the 15" BFG's so was just wondering if there was any other reason for purchasing the 16". I am interested in slightly increased the height but just wondered if you changed from 15" to 16" for any other reason. Cheers

Hello John, really interested in this set up. Having these tyres would give so much more confidence both on the road and on park ups etc where terrain is soft etc. You say in one of the previous comments that you don’t carry a spare but ‘have several ways to repair punctures’!! Can you tell us what these are? Reason for asking is that we have the standard Fiat 16inch alloys on our Rapido with the Michelin camper tyres and carry just spare tyre (to cut down weight) and of course the puncture repair kit that Fiat provide. We had the puncture prevention treatment fitted to our old van (some sort of goo I think!) which I thought expensive (have been quoted £200 from MH/caravan dealer for new van) but haven’t had the chance, due to lockdowns to have this done to the new van, and wonder what your thoughts are on this? Any comments would be appreciated. Cheers

BFG's are generally the tire to get. They also have a general following and fan club. Beach buggies, defenders ect have them. It's all about the name and white writing. Almost a fashion. For good reason, a strong tire. Look at old photos going back year's, the vw beach buggies run them.

Hi guys. I am elite wheels now about to have a set fitted! I was unsure about putting bfg’s on and your video was really useful although one supplier refused to put them on the van! Although I have to have the 130pcd size, were yours 118’s? I mentioned you and they gave me some discount so thankyou! I have to ask, who is Louise? 😂 hopefully see you at one of the meets this year.
