Off-road expert and adventurer Denny Danis of Team Bullet Off Road has heaped praise on Kumho Tyres versatile and practical all terrain AT52 tyres following his latest adventure through a rain affected and muddy Central Australia, including a Simpson Desert Crossing and a run back from Birdsville via Moree in Northern NSW. Denny said the AT52s on his 79 Series Toyota LandCruiser ute, out-performed all of the specialist mud terrain tyres on the five other Toyota’s which were part of the convoy, particularly in what was very muddy trip across the Simpson and coping with the equally wet conditions in the channel country south from Birdsville. Team Bullet showcased its well-travelled 79 Series fitted with its Kumho AT52s at the Australian 4x4 and Adventure Show at Sydney International Dragway in September. Denny said that the Central Australian trip which tracked west from Sydney and up to Coober Pedy, before heading to Mt Dare and across the Madigan Line crossing of the Simpson before returning to Sydney, covered about 8000 kms and was a stern test given the massive rainfall in weeks prior to the trek.
