    Bridgestone tyres

    Anyone running Bridgestone 604v tyres on their defender? How good are they? Jim

    Personally I would not touch them. Last set I had last barely 40,000kms and had one blow out with less than 1500kms and 4 punctures
    Yet my mate with a cruiser swears by them.

    I have been using them on my 110 for almost 15 years. Good enough that I have not been motivated to change them. A lot better than what I was using before then, but I can't remember what that was! They are fairly road oriented, but that is what most of my driving is in the 110.

    I use them and will probably continue to use them. I've had 50000 so far on my first set. I've taken them on outback tracks (about 18000k all up) and not had probs.

    Can't make any claims for them in the mud or on sleat/snow type roads.

    Ive found them to be the best price/quality combination for me. I expect to get say 60000 out of them.
