Steel rims N tyres

Post by kiwipete »

Hi all, I will be looking at replacing my tryes soon, currently 165/70/15 Bridgestone Winter Duelers on origonal alloy rims with wrangler MT/R 30x9.5/15 on steel rims.
The current price for these tyres at Beaurepairs is $218.00 each fitted. (trade discount)

What i'm also after is some suitable steel rims for these tyres (in Christchurch) at a reasonable price.
Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks in advance.

Rims you buy to suit the vehicle, not the tyre... what vehicle? :)

PS: Otago Tyres had some 31" Riken Raider ATs for about $150 each, they are the 'cheap' brand made by BF Goodrich, but for the money they might be worth a look. My dads got a set on his Pajero which look pretty good.

They are for a Nissan Terrano.

Was thinking of keeping the same size tyre on the truck.

Well I went to KATS in Kaiapoi and got me some Savero 31x10.5x15 tyres but kept the origonal rims as I needed another $300.00 for the steel rims.

What I would like is another of these tyres for a spare, dosent need much tread at all.

Anyone have a spare one lying about?
