I've got a set. Very happy with mine

Your experience and others I’ve read is why I’m looking at them. Apparently they’re reasonably quiet despite the aggressive tread.

How would you say the mileage is going so far, kms versus wear?

There very quiet. Usage is good however I've had nothing to compare it to.

I was looking at the 265/60R18 Monsta Terrain Grippers for the wife's new 2012 KK to replace the H/T's once they wear down a bit.

At $220 per corner delivered anywhere in Aus, it is hard to beat.

One thing that I was wondering about was the spare wheel space underneath the rear of the KK - can you fit a tyre of this size in there? If not, what does everyone do with their spare?

On my Commander you can fit a 2" larger diameter underneath by modifying the back of the tow bar and slightly deflating it and it looks to me like the KK is the same sort of deal unless I am mistaken?

Tempe tyres have cheaper prices online but as Ozzy are the importer distributor I asked Ozzy to match the price. No hesitation at all.

As their price also includes delivery there may not be much of a saving but if you pocket $40 that can go towards F&B.

Yeah, Tempe Tyres are $25ea cheaper than Ozzy, but then charge $200 for delivery. (I am located in The Pilbara after all).

Anyone got an answer for me on the spare wheel space? Just trying to figure out if this is an issue with the larger size tyres or not.

Quick update on these tyres, after about 30k I’ve found them to be awesome. Still has most of the tread depth, great traction on and off-road including heavy rain. Just haven’t been on sand with them yet. Before these I could easily light up the rear end on my Ranger whenever taking off with a turn. The aggressive pattern remains surprisingly quiet compared to other tyres I’ve had, even the better half hasn’t complained or even mentioned it. The price is great too, I’ll certainly be putting these on next time and the KK when needed.
