Hi Variflex,
I asked a local tyre dealer here in the Clarence Valley a couple of months ago, cause I've had a great run out of my set and was told I could still get hold of a set of 604V's.
Bridgestone's web site still lists them, HERE (http://www.bridgestone.com.au/tyres/treads/604v.aspx) and their list of 4X4 Tyres (http://www.bridgestone.com.au/tyres/4x4/default.aspx)
A good all round tyre IMHO
:cheers:

Micky Thomson ATZ 4 rib on my car (285/75/16) and Cooper st on the trailer.
Cooper zeon LTZ and BFG at's on the wife's car. The BFG's will go soon.

I'm finding it very hard to justify the price of BFG's.

Post by: cm4x4nut on August 09, 2011, 07:49:19 AM: MTZ's and I will not pay for them again. Seam to grip OK on and off road, but nothing standout. Biggest issue I have with them is the wear rate. I have only got ~30k's out of them and there will probably only be another 5 in them.

Originally got them because alot of folks were raving about them.........should of just stuck to the BFG muds that I have used for years

Post by: Chippy76 on August 09, 2011, 08:28:55 AM: Gunna do, I cant change the options to allow you to change your vote, without restarting the poll.

Lost, I know I could have added a long list of tyres. However I added the ones mentioned previously and what I thought are the most common tyres.

I personally would steer away from some of the cheaper brand of tyres, as those 4 bits of black rubber are what my families life depends on.

Cheers Chippy :D

Perhaps one of the Moderators may be able to add this option, as it will keep the poll current as people change their preferences.

Post by: davidy61 on September 15, 2011, 12:09:13 PM: Dunlop SP01 Highway Terrains on an 18" rim - 225/65/18.

They are OEM and okay but once worn out I will be looking something with a bit more gutsy tread. This is not easy on an 18" rim but a few manufacturers are starting to bring them out now, so by the time I've worn them out, it may be good.

I've done 21,000kms on them, good for sand and dry surfaces but would hate to try offroad in mud or slippery stuff.

Post by: John Connor on September 15, 2011, 12:20:12 PM: My poor old Pajero (turbo diesel) is on it's 3rd set of Cooper STs the first set got to 80,000 kms with plenty of tread left so put them on the CT, second set lasted 100,000 kms still legal (just) but they do get a bit exciting as the rubber gets older and hardens up. Found them to be a good all round tyre as I do lots of towing with sand, snow and the occasional rocky track thrown in. The original Toyos only lasted around 50,000 kms

Bridgestone D694's here, Not in the poll, I suspect the 604's are discontinued and have been superseeded by the 694's

Bridgestone are also testing a new 4wd tyre which is slightly more aggressive than the 694LT http://www.bridgestone.com.au/tyres/treads/d697.aspx
