Nope, don't know that one……..This one is the 30th? annual WoodsPoint run.

But L Like the sound of yours…..Traction Control? Does this mean only vehicles fitted with TC?

Not strickly but preferred,

I have cooper zeon ltz on my d3.

The older model d3 , they do not rub, maybe at hard lock.

But hardly noticable.

They have now done 100,000 km and have 4 to 5 mm tread left.

I ordered them from tempe tyres in sydney, delivered to melbs.

$300 a piece.
Great tyre, not like my old cooper st, which slid in the wet badly.

Bit noisier than the road tyres mind you.

I do like the look of the grabber AT s abd the apparently have passed EU noise regs.

Interested in anyones experience with them

What size zeons did you get?

Cheers

Anybody tried BF Goodridge AT LT 265/65/18 ?
Apart from the RRP of $585 a corner they look pretty good. Funny that Tire rack in the US has them for $261, bit of a difference :o

I have Maxxis Bighorns on at the moment, they're great off road but too noisy on road.

Think they are 285 60 18

Tight squeeze getting the spare in tho!

Hi Steve
I have a mate in Bright (not on forum) who has these on GOE rims (D4 SE) and he loves them. He says quiet on road and he also does regular trips into the High Country and very happy with them off-road too. He got his from Tire rack too-can't remember exactly what price he paid but similar to quote you mention. Regards, David

Any other issues with that size?

Was looking at 265/60(or65)/18 in at3 or BFG and got prices of $290 and $340 each from tempe.
Zeons sound good though, hmmm....

Cheers

Issues, spare tight
Tow bar harder to install.
Speedo reads spot on now, ( no room for a few kms over)

This has been discussed before , i will find the link.

The wear on these tyres has been incredible, great grip, wet and dry on and off road.
