Club 4X4 Claim Review – Darren Seeley

Knowing when, and which, 4X4 setting to use is the difference between a great day on the tracks and an expensive call to the local recovery bloke.

When you travel full time, you don’t just drive a 4X4 - you live in it. Every mod, every upgrade, every tweak under the bonnet or on the canopy has been added with purpose. It’s about having the right gear, in the right place, ready for whatever the road (or lack of one) throws your way.

There’s no shortage of opinions on what tyres your caravan should be running. You’ve probably heard everything from “just match your tow rig” to “it doesn’t matter, they’re not even driven wheels.” Like most things in the touring world, the truth sits somewhere between bush logic and engineer-speak.
