Mate I got rid of the red letters 8 months ago. The noise at 19k was terrible and the heavy tred on the side walls was deteriorating rapidly after each trip. Loved them for the first 6 months but they weren't for me at that size in the KKs wheel well.
So I went for a inch lower but tried to maintain width, opting for 265/70R16. It's the perfect fit for me now.
The brand was a decent cheap one. After spending big on the first wheels I've gone with replacements that I had fitted for $150 each an they have been awesome. One got heavily gauged in a sharp rock track and it hasn't leaked. They bag out really well and I work them hard off road.
This is them in action today. This beach turned super boggy further up. It has only been reopened 3 days ago now the turtle nesting season is over. The ranger stopped me for a chat on the other side. He was a bit surprised we made it through. He was asking after the tyres and now wants some for his F250, have too laugh at that
