I have just ordered 5 700x16 tyres from our continental dealer, not sure of the make. $155 plus $30 for tubes fitted. The 7.50 x16 were $175 fitted.The picture showed staggered blocks on the outside and zigzags in the centre. I can post details when they arrive if anyone is interested.

.... We have the Firestone with a rib style and they are $315ea. That's what you get when you want to buy .... Antique Tyres!

You can often buy the same tyres from Universal Tires (http://www.universaltire.com/) in the USA and land them via FedEx cheaper than the place that sells the Antique Tyres in Oz.

However if you do buy O/S make sure that any one delivery comes to less than $A1,000.00 landed in Oz including the cost of the tyres and shipping, or you'll have to pay GST and other duties that may be payable.

BTW. No Series 1 Land Rover had 7.50 tyres fitted OEM and 7.50 16 tyres should be on a 5 1/2" rim minimum where the Series 1 rims were only 5" (or 4 1/2" for the 1948)!

I have asked for a shipping quote on the 7.50-16 Bar Treads from this mob. I'll let you know how much it is. :)

I bought four new 7.50x16 NDT tyres last year. I got two for $50 each, and the other two for $110 each.

Got a reply:




Andrew:

We currently cannot ship directly into Australia but can ship to a freight forwarder on your behalf for shipment to you.

You need to contact someone like Mainfreight and then take a second loan on your house.

Someone identified a crowd on ebay that will act as your agent for ebay purchases including vintage and classic cars etc.
