18" BFG all terrains

Ditto,
Did you get 4 or 5 rib? I have the 4 rib MT's on my 2013 200 series Sahara but find them a bit noisy after having had BFG's on my previous vehicle.

Hunter I got the Baja MTZ 305/60 18's
I love them. Can't comment too much on noise as I tend to have the music pretty cranked up when I am driving so tyre noise is not a factor (unless it was louder than stereo of course!!) LOL

A lot of tyres from os do not meet Aus standards.

Jeff,
Funny how a reputable tyre company (Tempe Tyres) imports a BFG tyre from the states and if the distributor doesn't import it, even though it is from the exact same factory they are labeled as sub standard.

I don't think you or I are not talking about some back yard tyre manufacture in antarctica or any other big place.

Agree RA. Usual scare campaigning in my book. All I wanted were tyres to suit my new GREY nomad look :-)

Tyres from a reputable tyre manufacture will always meet or exceed Australian standards no matter where in the world they are sold.

The Australian standards thing the Australian importers scare consumers with is nothing more than a deceitful marketing approach.

There are five other standards that exceed Australian standards....

We see the same with motorbike helmets from the importers.

Do you really think a large scale manufacturer who produces 10's of thousands and in most cases 100's of thousands of a product is going to produce a very small quantity to meet the Australian standards.

Australian standards are a crock anyway after they deregulated it and started to involve private companies in issuing them.

Under Australian standards a product automatically becomes approved if it has a rating that exceeds the Australian standard from one of the other countries standards like TUV, EC, ISO, SAE, JASO.

+1 for Tire Rack. I have used them and even with delivery from the US they were still a couple of hundred bucks cheaper than buying local, delivered in 5 days too! Lets see a local guy do that. They gave the usual no warranty stuff, but they are BFG KM2 - no need to worry about that stuff. Had them on for 30k kms and probably have another 50k in them. I'll go through them again next time - if the aussie dollar is still strong.

garrycol,
I know there are other brands out there, and have them on my vehicle but I was wanting BFG's as I have had them on other vehicles, now when somwone asks a question on this forum, try and answer it nicely

Not sure how I didn't answer nicely - all it takes is a simple google search to find options - maybe if you listed the specific size you are looking for then maybe you might get better answers.

Yes, but 265! OEM size is 285/60/18, my BFG replacements are 285/65/18 and speedo now shows accurate where previously was about 2klm slow. I'll stick with the 285s thanks.

17" are the go for sure.

Toyota also sell steel rims specifically for the 200 at $108 to $130 depending on how well you haggle. I use them for muddies and my OE wheels ( which luckily are 17") for on road tyres.

Having 2 sets of wheels also has the advantage that I use the OE size tyres normally and 33" for the Muddies. The 200 will use about 3l/100km extra if you use 33" tyres over the standard 31.5".
