I know that Continental will go longer if carefully driven as its harder rubber than GTRadails... If it was me - I'll choose Continental ones.

I could be talking totally out of turn here however I think that Tim(_Coupe) had a set of Continental's and I am sure that I recall him stating that they just did not last that well

yep, ive seen the GT-radials before...i was gonna make a post,

i was talking to a dude with a lifted L-series, and he had the top GT-radials, i was extremely impressed, very very aggressive tread, and they where only like $90ish each...

I have used the winter GT radials before on 13in rims and found they lasted quiet a while on the L series and the MY wagons

You need to add some more info to answer that question:
Is it lifted, tyres for off road or road as well, what rims you got?
Sorry to be sarcastic, there are a few options for all of these, and I havent seen your wagon.

Hmm Dunlop Adventurers came out in a 185R14. Even though they are not on the Australian site - they are (or were a short while ago) available here.

Don't know how that would go without a lift kit...

Off Dunlop NZ site -:
