“Expanding the size range of one of our most popular road-going tyres is a welcome boost and with popular patterns selling well and demand for the extreme off road Creepy Crawler and Trepador continuing to grow, I believe we have the most comprehensive 4x4 range on offer in the UK and can therefore target a greater share of this key market,” says Maxxis International UK’s managing director Derek McMartin.
