Newbie wants a 712

[Dreadnought]

Hmmm, thinking about it, maybe Dave is correct in that mine may be slightly more nose down than others.....but I,m not sure, it has been parked in a line up with other Pinzes and didn,t seem 'noticeably' different except in one aspect, it has had the rims reversed/moved and re-welded at some time by the previous owner (a good and professional job with welds so perfect they could have been done by machine) and this above all gives mine a peculiar stance from the front, it looks as if the front wheels are splayed out at the bottom. It certainly doesn,t affect the handling...I use my Pinz as a daily driver and she was beautiful today, bad snow over the hill to the next town, the lockers helped and on the way back, a fresh fall of snow needed 4wd and lockers. Those front springs are more than capable and seem quite happy with the extra weight. The biggest difference in handling was when I changed from those awful original spec tyres (yes I am sure they are good on rocks) which on road were frankly frightening. I am on Goodyear G90 Radials at 7.50x16 and they handle well on road and are good grippers off road, I would recommend them to anyone with a Pinz who doesn,t want to go either very tall or wide. (They are probably among the tallest 7.50 tyres available.)
