It's on my list of To Do's mav.
Also got my eye on the Tuff Truck challenge which is around the same time from memory, and the Canobolas 4WD club (which I have recently joined) have got some great trips coming up this year including Simmo Desert/uluru :P
Hope to catch up with you blokes soon - hopefully at the Watagans and I can give you all an update.....Greg Simpson "Simmo"

Very Very Happy with my Cooper ATR
Just to get back on track on this thread....
Just wanted to let you guys (and gals) know I've had the Coopers ATR's in the taller 70 profile for about 6 months now and I'm very happy with them.
The improvement in the mud, and the rough stuff is certainly noticeable compared to the Dunlop Grandtreks (I'm sure Dobbo would agree with me here after our recent Bridle Track trip !)
No noticeable difference in road noise on the blacktop either.
I also ask my mechanic to rotate the tyres every 10,000km - as a local friend with a Prado tells me the front tyres tend to wear more quickly.
I've been on probably 1/2 dozen or more trips with the Cooper's and they have proved themselves in my mind, if anyone is considering them.Greg Simpson "Simmo"

Hey Simmo,
Just replaced the punctured Grandtrek with a D694 which is the spare for the moment. I'm trying to squeeze another 5 thou out of the Grandtreks but they're on borrowed time :P
I'm looking at $236.00 each for a full set of D694's .
Cheers

Thats not a bad price at all for 694'sComment

That's what I thought. $244.00 each less another $8.00 if you show your NRMA card.2014 Black GXL D4D Auto with a few add ons.Comment

Just curious, has anyone on here gone bigger then 32s? i.e 285-70-17s
I have 265-70-17 MTRs on my prado, but i would like to go a bit larger, my other strictly offroad (road rego'd tho) runs 37x12.5s and going back to 32s when driving the prado is a biiiiig step backwards.Comment

This may help re tyre changes and ADR compliance;

Cheers but it's worth noting that I believe this has only actually been adopted in Victoria and WA and the other states and territories regulations vary quite widely. Also, in Vic and WA if the pre-existing state regulations conflict with the VSB 14 then they take precedence.2009 Prado 150 D4D GXL with 265/70R17 Cooper AT/3 tyres, Max Trax, HR tow bar, Airtec snorkel, UHF and the usual recovery gear.

Can someone please tell me , ( I've been reading posts all afternoon) ...
Quite simply..... Is 265x70x17 legal in SA ON A 120GXL with alloy wheels?
Please!Comment
-
I got an engineering certificate for mine. In SA
My understanding is they are not unless here has been a rule change recently.
That being said I know of a hell of a lot running them.Comment

Not sure about SA but it's legal to run those sizes in qld nowOriginally posted by Prado44 View Post
