    Certainly will, kblof, probably about a month away from fitting to allow the wallet to get over the shock of the wheel purchase!

    The Ridge Grapplers look good, they were my 2nd pick

    Had the Toyo's on another 4WD (Isuzu Mux) and they were very quiet and smooth, and also very good in the wet, but only did approx 12,000 klms so can't comment on their life.

    Im running the Hankook Dynapro's, pretty happy with them. Pushing 50,000k's, on second rotation. 90% road use however the 10% off road has been in clay where I was impressed.

    We have about 2 months to go on the current set of tyres and I am now seriously thinking about switching rims but will maybe have to make a price compromise of non LT tyres fitted if going down the 18” rim path but still fitting something with a load rating of around 114.

    why would you buy the Tuffants

    a) if you’re not doing gravel/off-road and
    b) if you are doing gravel/off road then why not use LT tyres.

    Surely a better compromise would be to fit LT tyres and not bother with the rims.

    I'm going to do just and not go to 18s after all. Seems there's a bit more choice than I thought in 19" rim size. I was going to go for GGs but at the 390 bucks a tyre I saw yesterday I don't think so.

    Hi, I’ve ordered 5 steelies through Tuffant and plan to fit 265/60/18’s with Mickey Thompson Deegan 38 LT. There is a hold up on the Tuffant’s at the moment with them arriving possibly late September or more likely early October. Hope my present Wranglers can hold on lol 😂.

    thanks,
    Very very happy with them. In the wet great I feel the ride is better as well. Though they are noisier than the coopers. But can live with that as we have a snorkel and roof rack so there is already a bit of wind noise.
    Very happy after 8000km.
    Would recommend.
