Good afternoon one & all,
New tyres are on the agenda at the moment and there are no shortages of suggestions and opinions on this
forum.
Probably too much information thus making a decision even more difficult.
Considering we have the ADF operating in Iraq, Afganistan, East Timor etc, their vehicles would also be operating under some very extreme and severe conditions.
I'm assuming that their tyres would have to be very robust as any failure would render the crew 'sitting ducks'.
Would anyone be aware as to what type of tyre is currently being used, and if so, was the tyre supplied because the price was right or primarilly the best tyre for the job ?
Cheers.....Lionel.
