Thread: New D697s fitted

    New D697s fitted

    Well, had the D697s fitted today.
    Finally an LT tyre and close to stock (12mm increase diameter) 265-60-18LT

    Been out for a test run and they seem very nice.
    Quiet at speed and grippy on the rock ledges near home.

    And yes, I went with the OWL out so people can tell it has something other than road rubber on!

    It will be interesting to hear what they are like in 10,000k's, I put a set of 16" 694's on the D2a and they were great when new but got a bit loud after 10k.

    Mind you so have the AT3's after 20k.

    If you don't mind Tombie, how much were they each?

    cheers,
    Terry

    They look great. I had a pair on a 2011 prado and we loved them. Great around town and brilliant off road. We mainly do sand driving and we where tossing up between these and BFG we choose these because we thought they would be better in the city and we where right. Love them. can't wait to put a set on the D4
