they charge like a wounded bull . I believe they order their tyres from COKER in the US and you would be up for close to $500 per tyre Much cheaper options around I would think .

Sorry Andy, tyres I bought were 11.00 x 20 Armstrong Military.
Ironically, my wife now needs tyres for her AWD Hyundai & while hers are gonna be new and my Blitz ones are pre-loved, hers will be dearer!!!! More tread on mine though

sorry for the confusion guys, I got it wrong, thanks for stopping Bob going on a wildgoose chase Tony !
I struggled to source used tyres.... either no tread or tread but ancient walls or the usual ... good but other side of country ![]() I went for 5 commercial 9.00 x 20 for $500 the lot... I know they are not original or off road biased but only done 1000km and no age issues plus will do mostly road mileage ...... but of course, as soon as i bought them i got offer a set of bargrips... murphys law

Gday Bob,
You could try Doug Field at Flycom Spares up here in Ipswich, a few months back i purchased a set of five 9.00-16's for my WC 21 they were reasonably priced there brand name is Speedways great looking tyres, i cant remember exactly what i paid but it was around the $1200/1500 mark? they included bands and tubes. Hope that this is useful, cheers Matt Baker. |
