Title: Tyres Post by: surferboy on March 13, 2014, 04:50:21 PM Looking at putting new tyres on the wagon before we drive across the Nullabor.
Have been using Bridgestones on my cars since I started driving Rang the shop today only to find they DO NOT make tyres to suit my FC :o Years ago I was running B249s but they stopped doing them and I had to change to Turanzas (185/70-r13) now they don't make them either Need to buy Firestone Fitted Michelin once but sold them and replaced them with the Bridgestones Just wondering what everyone else likes Standard rims, daily driver, lots of city driving, regular country trips and the occasional drive across the country 8) 8) 8) Title: Re: Tyres Post by: freddyc on March 13, 2014, 04:55:18 PM I have maxxis 185/80/13 with a white band $125 each on all my fc's . My wagon tyres are 6 years old and still going, been to orange, perth and soon Tassie.
