Hi, Im new to Offroad Express, and am looking for some help/advice on New tyres for my 04 SR5 Hilux..
I currently have Bridgestone 10R15LT desert dueler tyres on her and have had no issues with them for the last 4 years On and Off Road..
Time has coming to replace them, iv'e been on many many web sites looking for a aggressive looking tyre and found the Hankook RT03 30x950R15...

Question I have is will these work on the Hilux and has anyone got any reports on them or no of any issues etc..

Cheers Al

Cheers for the post DDAN,
I wanted to stay with the same tyre but they (bridgestone) have stopped making them, and only 5 left in the North Island...

i run the rt03 as a road tyre. perfectly good. found them good in the recent ice and snow in dunedin. nice and quiet. only cost 200 each. i think they may be making my vehicle use more gas, lots more infact. just about to remove them and check.

KM2's are cheap from campbells toyota in balclutha.
