Don't worry about the replies guys I did some other research, apparently they are crap tyres, wear quickly and get noisier as they wear. Will go for something else.

May be worth having a chat to Rob (robo), he is an ORE vendor who sells Tyres and may have some suggestions, He usually has some good monthly deals.

Some more cash become available at tyre time so decided to go with the Bridgestone Desert Dueler 694 which is about as aggressive a tyre that I need for my type of driving. So far I have only used them on sealed roads and no problems with handling. They are very smooth and very quite. I will post more info when I have tested then on the Coromandel over the coming weeks.

After having the Dueler 694's on for a couple of months I have come to like them. Initially I was not to rapt in them as the Surf was all over the road with the back end on both wet & dry seal and also on gravel and the ride was as hard as the hobs of hell. After doing my first trip on gravel I pulled over and decided to check tyre pressures and found all were 40 psi which had been inflated by Firestone. I had a feeling that this was a bit too high so dropped tyre pressure back to 38 and a small improvement was noticed straight away so 10km later pulled over and dropped another 2 psi to 36psi, once again another improvement. That night I spoke with friends son who is a tyre dealer and he said even 36 was a bit on the high side and he suggested somewhere between 32 and 34. I now have them at 34psi and they feel good, no more hanging the tail out and good grip on seal and gravel.
