Best price I have managed so far was $320 - but the local KMart said they would beat any written/printed price too.

RRP about $550 :twisted:

Shipment has landed and just been quoted $390 each supplied and fitted from my local Bob Jane TMart.

Anybody got any better prices?

If they are anything even remotely like the earlier model they will chip to buggery....

Look forward to seeing some real world experience...

Took advise from others at the time and went for a set of D697's. ( $2,000 for 6, fitted to new 18" rims, balanced.


Very happy with there wet and dry handling on-road or off-road with light and heavy ( GVM ) load towing.


Just returned from a 6,000km trip and they exceeded my expectations in some wet, but mostly dry very hot conditions with about 2,000km off-road.


Regards


Gerald

I thought $390 per tyre was dear that I paid.

Are you sure they are KO2? Jax tells me they can't even buy them for $390

Yup - I made the equiry through their website and got this in return:

We thank you for your valued enquiry and have pleasure in quoting as follows:

To supply, fit, balance, valve including disposal and GST:

265 / 60 R18 BFG KO2 @ $390 each.

This item is currently in stock from our supplier - please allow next working day from order.

If we can be of any further help then please do not hesitate to contact us by return.

Thank you and kind regards,

Gian.



REMEMBER we have our " BEST TYRE PRICE GUARANTEE ", find an identical stocked tyre for less and we'll match it and pay you 10% of the difference. Refer Best Tyre Prices Guarantee for details.

I reckon they have made a mistake and quoted you for KO, not KO2. RRP is $599, Bob Jane quoted me $540, Jax quoted me $490

Was 265/60R18 size available in KO? I paid $365 plus fitting for 275/55R20 KO2 early September but not imported / distributed by Michelin.

Same here,they have made a mistake,my guy has them for $480.

245/70/17 are $350 in KO2,and $310 in KO.

Graeme,yours sound cheap as well,and they aren't on the Aus BFG website.

The 697s are definitely a lot cheaper than the KO2.
