So my forester is my daily and my offroader and I am looking to purchase my first ever set of all terrains/mud tyres. only mud tyres available in a size that can legally be fitted to the car are maxxis trepedors in a 205/70R15 which are around 230 bucks (extortionate). next down are both Aggressive ...

yeah I might do that too.

yeah I am thinking so he said if its not fixed it would destroy my viscous coupling?

So about a year and a half ago maybe longer I purchased a 2001 forester with a full service history but listed on what it needed as a transfer bearing. I have managed to get a price from Boxer service brendale for it and when I have tried to compare price with a different mechanical workshop they do...

So driving the wife's 2008 SH Forester today and as were out driving suddenly the engine warning light comes on and at the same time the dynamic stability control/ traction control light comes on, then finally when we start heading for home cruise control disengages and the green cruise light starts...

Another size that is arguably legal for SF forester is 215/65R16 it's 15.22mm bigger one could round to closest mm which makes it 15mm

Maybe shannons?

Yeah It makes wonder is it something that an insurance company would use against you during a claim if something happened too? Or not

Has anyone with the L series run either the 27x8.514 or the 185R14 range of offroad tyres and been pulled up for inspection by Dept of transport? If so was it something they noticed or did they let you go?

So I chased clarification regarding the bit about MC class AWDs being a "soft roader" in QLD Transports eyes and being not entitled to legally increase Tyre Diameter past 15mm. First the argument was because I don't have the ladder style body its an AWD. Then when I pointed out that Pajeros don't ei...

Cheers if I decide to go down the all terrain path I'll defiantly do that

Must have been on special unless ipswich Kmart are rip offs lol

So priced those bad boys at 195 each yikes at that price 35 bucks more is maxxis trepeder MTs in a 205/70R15

You know I had forgotten about toyo my father has them on his ranger and swears by them......Ill have a look at them and yeah ill check the plate .

So nearly every tyre shop I ring reckons legally biggest sizes I can run for my forry are either 215/70R15 or 225/60R16 which sadly a mud terrain does not come in. Apparently to be classed as a 4wd vehicle one must have a transfer case, according to Dept of transport AWDs are classed under a soft ro...

My Forester does 0-100 very very very very very very very slowly. That particular feature I miss my falcon for.

Yup that's the one.

Parts of QLD are very dry particularly West. The farmers really do it tough.
