Default Tuffant Kimberly



Try as I might to avoid trimming my calipers and switching tyres until my Goodyears have had at least some mucky miles on them, this latest offering from Tuffant comes and gets under my skin.

Similar offset to the Simpson alloy, slightly lighter (30lbs) and with an even higher load rating.

I see a set of these in smoked grey and a pair of new boots in my future.

Curious what others think. I think they look excellent and similarly bada$$ to the EvoCorse Dark zero that at least two members here have switched to.

Great looking wheel. Better looking than the Evo Corse to my eye. I’m already set or those would be on my short list.

I have the Evo Corse DakarZero and if that option was available, I would have gotten it! I agree that they look great. I don't regret the DZ's and won't pay to swap now, but I certainly think that is a great looking wheel. And I don't really consider myself a stylist when it comes to wheels. I just needed to go with 18" wheels and preferred them slightly over the steelies.

Same here Grouse. I'm a cheap bastard when it comes to alloys. I'd have happily paid more to get 18"s from the factory but had to go with the zero cost 20" daftalloy. The DZ's look amazing on your rig. I'd never swap them.

At least having winter tyres I can tell myself the 20" are my snow set. It just pains me to get rid of the newish Goodyears. (Cheap bastard that I am ). TBF, they've held up just fine so far with the moderate stuff I tackle.

These Kimberlys just look the bees knees and fitment is no worries. (once I get that grinder going). Also I have a soft spot for that part of Australia. Such an amazing part of the world.

Honestly, those look really great. Exactly what I'm looking for as a matter of fact as my rig is White and I do like what white on gold/bronze look. Nice to see more options becoming available.

That’s not a new defender. Look at the hood line.
