From Robbie..

Fitted by Robbie (see Ebay Link above, really good guys & service was good) on the way back from Tassie, more aggressive & noise, if the OEM Tyres were 28db in cabin these would be 32-35db. Way more tread depth.

Thanks mate, but as I drive on the road so much I really want to keep the noise as low as possible. Nice to know about an eBay store that can do fitting though, thanks.

Hi mate, mine are 265/50/20's. Paid $1,320.00 fitted for 4.

Cheers, Craig

HI,

Have the same SRX Coopers on our Jeep (20s) Great tyre as Craig says. Same sort of price and got a Caltex $100 voucher!

Have still got the Michies 18s as well. Swap them over every 6 months or when wanting to do 4WDing on van trips.

Cheers,
Sally

Thanks everyone. I'm going to get a quote on the Goodyear efficient grip and the Cooper SRX. If there is a big price difference then that will be the deciding factor, if not it's back to the reviews
