Pick up the new Prado shortly, and decided I better have a think about tyres!
I gather it will come with some variant of the Grandtreks on it?
What are people running that are giving reasonable mileage, low noise and are somewhat better than the grandtreks?
I notice Coopers seem to be popular? Anything else? Simex, bridgestone etc?
I will probably swap them from new to see If I can get a trade in on them thats worth anything, I read somewhere that someone scored $1000! for them!
I guess the Wife will steal it from day one, so it will mainly get city driving with a few trips Highway and some dirt monthly.
Sand may also get a look in but not more than maybe 4 times a year at this point.
I would prefer to keep the tread noise down if possible.
I run a 4wd Work vehicle and we have been using AWR safari's on those, they last forever, and havent let us down yet! We are getting average 85000 to 100000 kms before needing replacement ! Vehicle weighs in at 2.4 tonne.They are somewhat noisy after about 40000 kms though
Thoughts anyone? Experiences?
