If you shop around you should get a good deal on a good set of rubber
And yes the El Dorados are made in the same factory as Coopers
You get what you pay for ;)

My MT/R's were destroyed after only 40k,I won't ever have them again. Pat

Psst, look how old the thread is ;)

FWIW a 79 Series ute in the local tyre service had some 235/85-16 Kevlar sidewall (new type) MT/R's on and they were cactus, chipped and torn to buggery :o

I know the farm manager that drives it, I'd love to know how old and what conditions he's used them in.

Not sure about this particular brand but my friend has some "westlake" mud tyres on the hunting rig and I rate them!! They have done really really well so far they are prob only up to 5-6000km so far but off road they have excelled, the tyre dealer said they were made in the same factory as coopers...
