After nearly 70k out of my KO2’s I decided to replace them before my next big trip in August to October. They had become very noisy (nearly as noisy as the mx5). Replaced with Falken wild peak at3w 265/65/18. $1500 for 5 tyres fitted and balanced, old tyres disposed of, I thought was a great price. Just a side note. Bob Jane says they price match. BS. Said prices on market place even if from a retail tyre place don’t count. Best they offered was $331 per tyre. I feel like reporting them to ASIC for false advertising. Nothing on their conditions say anything about Facebook or marketplace and I could produce all the info they wanted to verify. No wonder the old man Jane wanted to get rid of his son! A real shyster IMHO

PM sent - BJ quoting me $413 each on same tyre in WA wouldn’t mind seeing if they price match your receipt.

They'll probably say that transport to the wild west makes up the difference [bigrolf].
