PRICES FOR SOME TAKKIES

[SJC]

I need to spare a few buffalos for the replacement bumper and canvas canopy/cattle rails...
Thats one of the reasons i was considering km2's in 255/85r16, i can get them for R3120 balanced & fitted, vat inclusive. The lowest price i got on the 285/75r16 km2's was R3489 balanced, fitted, vat inclusive.

Anybody got an "old" 33x12,5x15 tire they want to "dump". I have just gone to 33's on the Sani, and was only able to get 4 rims and tires in the set. I now have found a rim that just fits, but is only a 7J. As a spare wheel, the guys say I can get away with the 33x12.5 on the 7J for short urban distances in an emergency.

My wishlist actually has a set of six KL71's on it, but I seem to be about 18K, and two rims, short on my budget .

I did think of just slapping a 31' on as a spare, but with the H260 LSD that seems to be very tight, I think I am going to be running into some problems.

I know what you're saying, the tires are essential, they keep the car on the road every day, the replacement bumper, imho, not so much.

255/85R16'S will also keep the car on the road....so will STT's (oppose to st max)....

David, I have a 33" x 12.5" x 15" BFG A/T here for you.

It has 90% tread left, but is about 8 years old (most of that time spent lying in the garage though) and has a patch in the sidewall. You are welcome to it, free and gratis, as long as you bring me back the rim it's mounted on.

Thanks Peter, I don't get to Joburg much these days, but if I get out there, I will arrange that I get to a fitment centre in the same trip and get that rim back to you.

As I say, it is only for the sake of having a spare of some sorts, which is more than I have right now. I'm driving around with this nagging in the back of my mind that the rubber on the road is all there is.

I need to get to Joburg, I have an intercooler waiting for me in Roodepoort I just need to go pick up.

Tell you what, if you give me fair warning i'll even take it off for you.
