Morning all. Just back in
Melbourne briefly for some running repairs halfway through the 'Great Trip', and decided the tyres will need changing if I'm to have another 6 months of incident free driving. Whilst up north I met a few people who, after becoming frustrated with
puncture after
puncture, had put on Hancook Z59 and couldn't talk them up enough. If it was just one incident then I would have put it with all the other useful sometimes useless information, but this happened on several occassions.
Question. Are they any good? How much are they(standard 235/70-16)? Where do you get them down here? and finally why, if I'd never heard of them before would I encounter a number of separate stories/incidents?
Thanks if you can contribute to some or all of these questions and if you can't......thanks for having a read anyway.

I know Jax Transtate tyre Service sell Hankooks if you got one in your area. They quoted me $170 for Hankook RA03 AT's in 265/70/R16 so their considerable cheaper than some of the competition. I was seriously considering them but decided to go for 265/75/R16 instead and they didn't have any in that size.
