Here are my new tyres as fitted to my 10/87 Range Rover.

They are 245/70 16.

They are a little larger in diameter than the 255/65 16 that came off it.

Only done Adelaide to Horsham on them so far, next week they will go to Brisbane.

Ive got those in 285/75-16 and am absolutely wrapped with them. A really good tyre.

I was going to get BF Goodrich All Terrains, but they weren't available on the day. Hopefully these will do the job for me. They are a bit more aggressive than what I had before (Toyo OPAT and Michelin 4x4) and they are slightly taller.

One day I might get some play tyres and rims, but considering that most of the kms I do these days are on the highway between Horsham and Adelaide I think these are a good compromise.

I think that you'll find these to be better than the BFG ATs, but they'll also wear quicker.

I agree, I think that they will wear quicker, but they were also $25 per tyre cheaper :p.

And if I win the $50 000 Golf I will be way in front!
