    We are looking for tyres for a Citroen Berlingo Multispace for driving in Sand.
    Does anyone know where we could get these?

    Think you'll struggle to find specific sand tyres plus they'd be pretty expensive.

    Most overlanders make do with standard all terrain tyres or road tyres for desert use, you don't want anything too agressive. Airing them down will help but don't rely on a cheap compressor from a motoring shop to pump them back up (do a google on T-max compressor)

    Agree with all of this.

    For driving on sand, I would be running at a tyre pressure of 15 psi or less.

    Even better run an arb compressor with a tank. That way it will do for cleaning air filters etc. Don't mind my asking does it have four wheel drive if not could be looking for trouble if in deep sand...
