New tyres
Submitted by dakka on Mon, 2015-07-13 15:41
Howdy all
when i get my tax back I am going to get new tyres for my hilux.
i currently have 32 x 11.5 x 15 muddies, I travel to caning vale daily from Rockingham so I want to go to an all terrain tyre as I am mainly on bitumen but I also want to be able to go on the beach as well. So can anyone recommend a tyre or tyres and dealers I should look at for these please sor preferred or if price is right any where in Perth
Thanx Darryl

Tempe tyres
Try Tempe tyres in Sydney, great price and they send them across pretty quick for a $100, but you'll still be way ahead.

Have tried lots of brands of tyres on work hiluxs over the years generally in 235, 245 and 265 / 75 size
we do lots of gravel, black top and soft beach sand kms
best all conditions tyres we have found are BF Goodrich AT.....not too much road noise, good at low pressures on sand (often run as low as 10psi), decent price and last for ages,....only issue we've ever had is in really clay type mud when the tread gets made up with mud and they become slicks but think that issue will be common to all treads other than muddys.

Bfg muddies . Quiet as anything and good for 100 000 km if you look after them. Look up cornells tyres on ebay mate. Massive savings. Got mine for 260 each delivered instead of 430 around town.

Finally got the chance to try
Finally got the chance to try out the new BFG All-Terrain T/A KO2's in the dunes - very happy with them so far.
Planning a major suspension upgrade soon so I'm trying to document a before and after difference in the handling under different conditions.
Running at 'about' 25psi on a stock standard Turbo Diesel 100 series best in HD.
