gday shannon.
we sell bucket loads of them tyres $130each.(31x10.5x15)
there what we call a car yard tyre.
have had a few people come back to upgrade from them.
they do about 40000ks.
very soft in the sidewall.
a couple of people have said not to good in the wet.
no complaints about noise.
and one step better than a recap.
if you intendon going of road a fair bit save up and get a better tyre .
another cheap alternative would be desert dueller about $150 each.40000KS
or save a little more and get cooper(my choice)for about $230 each.80000KSnew job coming so no fraser this time:-((

Shannon,
I've had a set of roadtrekkers for over 2 years. They were originally fitted to a hilux dual cab for over 20000 klms and have been on my 4runner now for a further 20000 klms. When new they had 10mm of tread and now have about 5mm left. I have rotated the tyres and had regular alignments done. In that time I have had 1
puncture which happened on a rocky ( blue metal ) forestry road near Abercrombie River N.P. where a sharp
rock penetrated the tread. Like a lot of people my vehicle does mostly road travel with moderate off road as often as possible.
