Ben – “answer from Cooper is its due to overload or deflating after they have inspected the tyre” – I have had the exact same experience although in my case I only dropped to about 1.6 bar on gravel and pumped up for tar – the only one to do so in my convoy. The ST Max gives me no confidence in that I don’t even know what I did wrong or how to prevent it happening to the next set. The other brands I’ve owned had zero issues running down to 60% of my recommended pressures these…75% if you lucky.
As for Steve – “I Say drive according to what you have, you’ll be fine. If Budget is no issue, get a 3 ply… And a fully kitted Land Cruiser… Drive Cape to Cairo” Oh the irony…of what I drive and have. The ST Maxxes seem to prefer running 2.4 bar plus and the agent can’t give me recommended pressure. No, stick with your Grabbers vs R25k… More Money <> Better. I’m replacing 5 low mileage Coopers with tried and tested tyres instead. My wife jokes that the C should be a P.
