I'm running these. They have had a hard life and still have heaps of tread. Value for money tire. 265 75 R15. Done about 60,000kms on them and they are about 60 - 70% worn. A little noisy now, but the front alignment was incorrect for a while and wore them uneven on the inside.

You get away with running higher tire pressures.

Bilstein 7100 remote reservoir shock absorbers. You don't feel the harsh ride running 40+ PSI. Possibly not a fair comparison to the average mug's Disco.

Tombie runs 7100's as well if i remember correctly.

I guess it is one thing to run high pressures to get better tire wear, but how much do you sacrifice comfort for an extra 5000Kms?

I think I have given my BFG MT a hard time but I've only been in the NT for near 3 years. For the locals up here, this is normal.

Then the mob up here have no idea about windy roads. Blasting the Kangaroo valley means pushing hard through some corners to me. Those kind of roads will get semi slicks nice and warm.

Up here, there are 2 corners. Tuning on the Barkley Hwy from the Stuart Hwy and turning onto the Victoria Hwy. That about sums up the state.

Happy Days
