    No 18s is the quote I requested.
    But now you've got me worried, I'll have to go check it again

    Geez mike that is a great price.

    Every other name brand tyre I was looking at was around $350+ for 18's. I cant see any other all terrain being worth the extra!

    Yes the price is very good, seems Bridgestone are having a bit of a promotion. The quote is from Bridgestone themselves.
    Best I could find other than that was 299 each and the worst I bothered recording was around 390. I am pretty sure that I saw someone with them fro well over 400 but I didn't bother putting that in my spreadsheet.
    The amount of difference in price between shops for the same tyre is incredible - about a $200 spread for the D697s this time.
    But every time I am in the market I run up a spreadsheet to record quotes and there is always a big spread. Doesn't matter what brand. There must be some good margins out there
    Cheers

    Reviving this thread because the new 18" rims are being delivered tomorrow. I missed out on the D697s at $235 each, now $310.
    But Monsta ATs are $190 each from Tempe Tyres, that's $950 for the five. Looks like I maybe the Monsta guinea pig. I will decide in the next day or so, if I go Monsta, I will let you all know how they go.
    Cheers

    One last trip Mon/Tue on the D697s before I fit these next Wednesday.

    I will still have the D697s on my other wheels if I need them...
