    Tires as delivered on new 130 dual cabs good?

    They look to be very good for general off road and the work commute. Just wondering how these tires will go for south west Queensland outback camping etc.

    They'd be better than the Grabbers supplied with 110's, which I have. Mind you, these have done 30000k's of outback trips including all over SW Qld and Madigan Line.

    I have 2 sets of tyres, with one set exclusively for trips. My "road" tyres (also Grabbers) have done almost 90000 k's.

    Cost is all relative though - I hear many people are getting over 100,000 k's from a set.
