Awesome Tyres. Look at the pictures. 10,000 kilometres and they look brand new! – I have done 10,000 kilometres and the tyres look brand new. I rotated them after 5,000 kilometres and will keep doing this for better life. I cannot find any fault. These are on my 2010 Triton 2WD. I live in Western Queensland and most roads are single lane which means sometimes you have to get onto the gravel/dirt and with these tyres you can do… Read more
so with confidence. Like I said, I cannot find fault. Awesome tyres and well done Maxxis and your team of designers and all involved with Maxxis. You really have hit the preverbal nail on the head with these tyres. Awesome!
Reliable in the toughest conditions, good wearing - quiet in comparison to most comparable tyre – I have run the Maxis 700's on my Hilux since 2002 (new), the Hilux is now coming up for 300,000 k's on Western Australian roads, tracks, beach's, bush and anywhere else to access fishing and camping spots. Travelled extensively throughout the Pilbara Region as a part of my work in the Mining industry (rough/corrugated, hard iron ore roads on days… Read more
of 50 degrees C in the shade), never had a wall failure (blow-out), had two punctures (both nails of considerable size - back in Perth). If these tyres are a problem to you - have a look at the tyre pressures you are running - from my experience, 45 psi for towing a loaded boat (usually with 100 lts plus fuel (jerry cans in the ute) and a freezer. 35 psi around town, 30 psi on rough roads unloaded (generally doing 90 km/hr), down to 15 psi on the beach. DO NOT run your tyres under inflated, even for short periods. At these pressure the tyres perform VERY well and wear evenly. Only once wore a tyre unevenly after putting the wheel alignment out (hit a cow) and then drove 1700 km back to Perth (that tyre and other 700's are now on my boat trailer, box trailer and camper trailer) all having done at least 75,000 kms. Never had a problem with balancing - maybe swap your tyres supplier before blaming the tyre - going out of balance is not the tyres fault - maybe look at your driving. Just about to buy another two new 700's for the front of the ute and they should see me through to just under 400,000 kms! Most on my fishing group (8 vehicles) have changed to the 700's due to wear / price / noise / reliability considerations. Having travelled in many of the other vehicles, I understand why they have changed over to the 700's.
These are great tyres for 4x4's and SUV's – This is the second lot of Maxxis A/T 700 Bravo that I have fitted toy Triton. I have been impressed by how well these tyres have performed both on road and off road. The first lot of Maxxis AT 700 Bravo's I got over 80,000 kilometers out of on all sorts of roads and road conditions. They are a quiet sounding tyre and have complimated my Triton and have performed above my expectations. Show details
Perfect – I bought these tyres because i use it for on road aswell as bush tracks, i do 50 50 and the have never let me down, even when my car sat there for months the tyres were still strong, my mate put me onto them and ive even got into contact with maxxis just to tell them how good that tyre is...

Terrible quality regretful decision – Looking for a tyre that vibrates, wobbles and bounces down the highway, then these are for you. I've had these tyres fitted for a little over 2000ks and have had the balanced and re-balanced 3 times. Each time I'm told the balance is a long way out. I'm currently trying to get a replacement from Maxxis. Should have stuck with Hankook. Show details
Great tyres, a little expensive – Looking like getting better mileage from these than my original Bridgestones, which gave me 62,000kms, and they have a more aggressive pattern. Not particularly cheap(set fitted was $940) but looking the goods, quiet on the road too. The importer offers very good service to the fitter, I ordered them, they didn't have the tyres, but were able to fit the same day. Show details
Will not buy again – I haven't even done 5000km and the rear tyre got a hole in the sidewall on a dirt road. It was the first time on a gravel road, I definitely want go off road with these tyres what a waste of money. If you buy them stay on the bitumen or be prepared to have punctures or do what I have to do and throw it away and buy another new tyre. Show details
Has handled everything I've thrown at it – These tyres came with the 4runner I bought. They didn't look particularly aggressive but I have since done the strezlecki, Simpson, savannah, Birdsville, Gibbers and Canning on them. I have done river crossings with slimy rocks, rock climbing, sand, dunes and some of the most horrible rutted roads in Australia. I have barely had to engage the… Read more · 1
front wheels at all (maybe 10%). I have been bogged once. Lowered the psi to 20 and off she went. I get basically the same economy on dirt as I do on bitumen and in 10000 km I have not yet had a puncture, touch wood. I've always run Hankooks on my old bj40 of which I have driven around Australia on, twice, but I am seriously impressed with the Maxxis. Oh, and they're bloody good in the wet, will not skid in emergency braking and don't throw you sideways driving through water. Ripper tyre and I'd highly recommend them.
OK on Tar Rubbish on Rocky roads – Bought at the time for low cost at time $200ea, perform ok on tar and graded white metal roads. Took them over graded rocky station tracks near flinders ranges and obliterated them in very low km. Running 32psi at time and running conservative speeds. Punctures caused massive splits in the steel belts, not repairable, 2 x throw away. Definitely not an offroad or heavy load rated tyre. OK on Tar Show details
Puncture after puncture – Punctures after punctures. Biggest mistake I have ever made. payed over $1000 Since then I have had to replace 2 tyres for punctures all in the side wall. I gold detect over mainly quartz and not extreme off road driving. VERY, VERY SOFT IN THE SIDE WALL. I tow a van and the rear tyres are nearly down to the wear strip. Poorly made tyre rubbish Show details
tyre vibration – since I got the tyres I have had a vibration and I have had them balanced twice in 2 months and now it is getting better but still a little vibration is still there. so what is the solution what can I do. they are a great price I actually thought it was the uni joints but I have had them checked.

Best priced/value 4x4 tyre out there – i have the 285/75 x16 AT700 on my 80 series cruiser .they are very quiet compared to the coopers and i have driven on different conditions ,Beach work , limestone tracks where i really thought i would damage them due to sharp rocks .& muddy conditions .Mileage is looking good at this stage , they track really good .My suspension is near new… Read more
Pedders raised , all new bushes etc , and the price is right compared to brand names .I will have them again
Tyres skitter on the road – Have the tyres on my Kluger and find they seem to get "caught" in imperfections in the bitumen. Scary at times as the car feels out of my control for seconds as it skitters in the ruts, especially at higher speeds. Seems to be fine on good bitumen roads, but not on the less-than-perfect country roads. Show details

bloody ripper tyres – Over 140000 klms from these. I am a road pilot, so lots of driving on tar seal and some off road. Tried others... can't go past maxxis.. used to get AT 771 from bob janes... not happy they no longer stock maxxis..as they recommended them to me... maxxis bravo for me. Show details
Maxxis AT-700 – After reading many of the product reviews on the Maxxis AT-700 and Maxxis AT-771 i have found that there is no difference between the two they have the same tread pattern, and i can get 265/75r16 AT-700's cheaper from Jax Quickfit instead of paying a higher cost from Bob Jane for the 771's, therefore a win in my wallet of $200.
Happy so far – I have the AT-700 on my GU Patrol, 35000 km + so far and expecting another 35/40000 km without any trouble. I find them excellent on the highway and wear has been even across all 4. Off road work has been mainly sand and gravel and some rocky conditions. Some chopping and light damage to shoulders on steer tyres from rocks on the Canning stock… Read more
route but nothing more than expected, perhaps lower tyre pressure may have reduced this. Limited use in muddy conditions so not sure how they would perform when asked the question.
I wouldn't hesitate buying these again, especially if only using for highway and sand/gravel. If you like Bridgestone's you should be equally happy with Maxxis. Reasonably priced, good wear, good handling, great on highway.
