It Pays to Ring Around

Hi Coiled, Have you tried Hacketts at Coopers Plains, no affiliation ect, have just bought the last couple of sets from them and have had friends buy there as well.
Pretty easy to get along with, worth a call.

Thanks for the tip, appreciate it and just tried them. Unfortunately no Mickey T's but their prices are the best I have seen on the BFG KO2 & KM2.

Unfortunately I think I am starting to get my heart set on the ATZ P3

I just sold a set of 5 ATZ P3 in 265/70/17 for $500.

Only 10,000 (spare never used) and never been off road.

I live in Toowoomba but people don't want to drive an hour to get a bargin, they expect it to get dropped off for them.

Look around, there are some bargins around.

What a bugger! I would have snapped them up and been happy with the smaller size.

What were your thoughts on them as a tyre?

I like the p3's.  We went from mtz, and put the p3's on a few months before our cape trip. They have done well, and I have no regrets in changing at all.  Would I get another set when these wear out?  Yes!

[oldmate]

So I have seen a few posts from down in Vic regarding contacts within the Myswag Community that can get or sell tyres at the right price.

I am in the market for 285/70x17 in either a Mickey Thompson ATZ P3 or BFG KO2. Does anyone have contacts in the Brisbane area?

Cheers

You mean km2?

[Coiled]

You mean km2?

I was initially planning on the KM2 then decided it might not be ideal due to what I perceived would be deficiencies such as wet weather, beach and noise. At the same time felt the KO2 was probably too conservative with the loaded camper holding it back when in the bush. Then I stumbled across the ATZ P3 and it looked ideal with more aggressive pattern than a KO2 with perhaps less carcass exposure between lugs than a KM2 for the outback trips.

Basically we have GU Patrol towing 2.2T when fully loaded of Kimberley Karavan. The Cape and Vic High Country are on the agenda as occasional destinations with desert and beach in the mix also. I don't ask for much.

Super cheap sure ain't cheap for parts.
Cruze is overdue for a service so I bought a 20 let drum of Castrol RX diesel, some basic seat covers and floor mats for my young blokes car for Xmas and an air, fuel and oil filter for the Cruza.
Bill comes to $320. I am WTF???
I ask how much each item is until she gets to my filters and 5hit, prices are shocking. I returned all of the filters (all Ryco). I went to a local parts guy and pocketed $42 over the difference of three filters.
All filters between the two places were all Ryco.
Moral of the story is Supercrap is great for oil but not spares.
