    235/85r16 Tyres

    Hey folks,

    I am after some el'cheapo 235/85r16 tyres to run on a Disco.
    I have had a few tips about cheap brands to try but when i enquirer about them they are usually not supplied anymore.

    Anyone know any good cheap brands for 235 A/T tyres?

    I have had tips on Sailun, LingLong, Annaite and all these other random Chinese brands. A few blokes have run LingLong but they are no longer available...

    Before someone says 'why don't you pay for high quality tyres like Coopers or Maxxis etc' - I run Maxxis mud tyres which are about $300 or more on my Toyota and they are too expensive to put on a supercheap Disco and when i buggered one up out bush the other month...

    Thanks!

    Perhaps not as cheap as you might be looking for, but I’m having a good run with Federal Couragia ATs

    I bought my "cheap" Goodrides M/T off the internet via "etyrestore.com.au

    I paid $173 for mine....

    Here's a few that u might like: ETyreStore Online Store- 235 / 85 R 16 BCT Tyre - $179.00 for $179/tyre



    or this one: ETyreStore Online Store- 235 / 85 R 16 LT Fullrun Tyre - $139.00 for $139/tyre



    They look pretty good for a weekend bush tyre as long a tyre noise is not an issue with u

    Be good to know the year of manufacture for these tyres? I’m wondering if part of the reason they are cheaper is because they are already 1, 2 or3 years old

    Is this a normal price for Bridgestones - say if i went to a Bridgestone tyre place - or is it only Kmart that has them this cheap?

    I have no idea what the cost is these days - but there were well priced at some pint - Kumho tyres. I had some Kumho A/T's on my Defender 110 ute and they were pretty damn good.
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    I'm running these too, not too noisy on the road but they (as all tyres this size will)put the speedo out.

    Cheers
