Can anyone recommend suppliers for the above. Have a Lexus 470 fitted with standard road tyres - Dunlops I think. Want to drive them until North, perhaps
Broome then swap over to Coopers for GRR trip in late May. Can anyone recommend reliable suppliers in the north?

Are you aware that these tyres have a "N" (140kph) speed rating in LT (light truck) 16" range. I would imagine a Lexus 470 requires a speed rating of atleast "Q" (160kph) or perhaps more. Your insurance company maybe laughing all the way to the bank if you have an accident!
They have "S" (180kph) rated tyres in 16" range but they aren't LT rated.(load rating not as high, tread depth less) You will probably have to fit these to remain legal if the load rating is enough,
check out your tyre placard. Ensure the tyre supplier is aware of this.
Check out Cooper website for more info. www.coopertires.com/tire
