cheers dean it was good to get out again, we must do it more often. Sorry if I held anyone up with my minor electrical issues, I guess having a petrol has to have a down side.

What was wrong with them :?: Ran a set of 33's for 12 months was more then happy with them especially mud, snow and ice. Got a set of 35's to go on in a couple of weeks.

Al's OooSshtraaooaaliaaann, so more likely 4 XXXX rather than eggnog.

Funny Al, a while back you were bagging your old KL-71's for bad wear and now you're buying another set?

Guess it's for the miles you will do down south. They've got to be nicer on-road and wear better than the Silverstones. Wish I could be coming to play but my finances don't afford it and the new design project calls.... Enjoy!

At $1250 a set of four, you can't argue. They do wear like shit, but then I don't drive it evryday like I used to. Apart from wearing, I rated them as one of the best tyres I have ever owned. You can't beat them for snow and ice driving.

Keeping silverstones, still tread left on them. These will be a second set. Got too many rsets of rims in the shed, gotta put them to use some how.
