    Tirerack has the Pirellis at 44lbs, so a smidgen under 20Kg if 44.0 although unlikely that precise.

    Were Geedublya's Nittos TG or TG2? TG2 were promoted by Nitto on their release as being quieter and better in the wet than TG.

    Mine were TG 1 but when I looked at reviews for TG 2 people still complained about the lack of grip.
    The Wildpeaks may be noisier than the Nittos but the noise is very low.

    The "Delivery Co-ordinator" at the dealership tells me I should get the car on Wednesday. It should arrive at the dealership today. So, two weeks to move the car 650 kms - 46 kms a day.

    Waiting, waiting, waiting...

    Also usually very very expensive.

    I have never had the opportunity to view a car straight from the factory at the Dealer's showroom to be able to compare the differences & see exactly what they do for their loot.

    Ok, I realise there are some items that are essential prior to it hitting the black stuff, but for what they charge, to me, is just profit on top of the sale.

    A bit like Postage fees on E-bay, just jacked up to above what it actually costs them..

    They have you by the 'nads & they know it.

    Bastards!
