I paid $380 per tyre in jindabyne, the nearest other quote was $400 per tyre fitted! Got to expect to pay a bit more out here in the sticks I guess. Next time I'll be looking on eBay first

Just ordered a set of 4 x 265/17R65 , $320 ea f& b at Tyrepower in Kirrawee.
Bob Jane quoted $350 ea but stated if I got a better price they would match it and take a further 10% off the difference between their price and the best price I had.
I'm very happy with the the last set of BFG's which I bought back in Feb 2009 and have now got about 75K on them and could possibly get another 10 out of, but I wanted new rubber for the upcoming GTG, so time to smoke up the Visa card again.
Hey Dobbo, I too was very happy with the BFG's. Excellent wear , having said that I do rotate mine reguarly. Have done a bit over 44,000 km and I would say that they are not half worn yet.
Except a few tyres have entire lugs coming away as well as the chipping.
[Did you experience anything like this with yours?[/QUOTE]
No Rev, just a bit of chipping that you'd expect with travelling the sorts of places I've driven with them.
They've been through the last 3 GTG's as well as a number of trips about the place and rocky hills worse than what we had at LCMP and not let me down. I paid $284.00 a tyre last time round, cant get anywhere near that this time.
See you soon mate, Hannah's keen to catch up with your Hannah again.
$450 per tyre in kalgoorlie, and they'll fit and balance for free. Daylight robbery. Anyway, my car now has brand new tyres but no engine.

Bugger Bali, get out and see Australia before we sell it all to China.

Yes please tell, I could do with a couple of new ones at that price!

If you're looking for BFG KM2s in 265/70/17 good luck. I spoke with Michelin today and they are getting 30 in October and they have 200 on backorder...

I had forgotten about this place. When I was there a couple of months ago, they quoted me $330 each. It seems these guys are still able to get a price that undercuts everyone else.
