Hi guys!
A quick question: It's time to buy new tires .... what obout Kelly tires 265/65R16 for my toyota 80 series GXL ?? I'm living in K.I. and I noticed a lot of farmers are using it. Are they a good/cheap tyre or just a cheap tyre?
Thanks and sorry for my english ... I'm not english mothertongue!

English is fine except should be capital E and replace the word "it" in your post with 'them'. Got no idea about the tyres though!!

My Kelly tyres are excellent . Bought them to do a trip, 3 years and 60K ago and they're still going strong. The LT type are great in the rough but not optimal for tar. Howver they have great resistance to staking etc.

hmm not hard to fire up emotions when it comes to tyres. My van (pictured) had desert duelers on the back when i got it and goodyears on the front. Never had a problem and both eventually wore out (dds first) I replaced the dd s with saveros which only lasted about 5,000k the
gibb river road saw the end of both of them, replaced them with kelley safari awr at the rear which were doing ok until one popped near
Kookynie. By this tme the fronts were worn out and replaced with kellys which were on the van when i sold it. Current vehicle has toyo 10plys which are total and utter CRAP. I cant go round
the block without wrecking a tyre, tearing off tread blocks or getting flats

"tearing of tread blocks" ... now that sounds more like Coopers!
