Hi Bonz (vic)
talk to your tyre people about wheel balance on your vehicle ther is four ways too balance the wheel 1 is stacic not verry good 2 dynamic pretty good 3 on vehicle balance very expencive 4 put a packet of beads in the tyre used on 20 inch or so and lager could be up to $25 to $30 per tyre which will make the tyre wear evan

Well Truckster, sorry to dissapoint you but I still have a set of D693's as well as a set of D 694's that we recently used on our cape york trip with "Algee" and my D693's now have 50,000k on them and I expect at least another 10,000k, I must say I am surprised but happy, and they have had their share of offroad work.My D694's did the same work as "Algee" (and only look about 15/20 percent worn), so at this stage I have to say I am happy with Bridgestone. Tyres are a can of worms and I guess to each his own, everyonr will have a good and sad story.
For my part the election held true, must have voted for the right party!!.but lets not get into that.
Regards

He is the one saying he was unhappy with the stones.. if your unhappy with something, why would you get them again?

if you have a bit of a read around the place you will see 90% of people trade their tires from stones before they take delivery of the car.. same on the patrol list tis highly recommended.

50/60,000 isnt riveting klms from a tire but thats IMO... :D

YMMV.
