Found, beefy mud tyres in a size 215/65/16

Post by clogs » Fri Jun 17, 2011 6:37 pm

Just wanted to share a great find, bought spare rims for my05 fossie which I wanted to dress with some mud tyres. Found them hard to find in 215/65/16 without paying through the nose but found a China import tyre with great meat on them. They are called Linglong Radial620 for $100ea fitted. I had to specially order them through my local Jax store.

I wouldn’t recommend them for daily use cause they are a bit noisy. Otherwise… awesome.

also they hardly look mud tyre.

there are soooo many options for a 16inch rim. Pay abit more and get a real/decent tyre.

guyph 01 try Townsend International Tyres 08 9249 5722 here in Perth and Alex i've been running linglong tyres on my boats tandem trailer for years now don't knock em till you try em'

And lets face it if you went throught 2 sets of these to one set of BFGs you'd still be ahead because tread on any tyre don't last forever so why run around on near bold BFGs when you can throw on a new set of linglongs.

my liberty had linglongs on it when i bought it. Best thing i ever did was lose them tyres.

cheap chinese shit.

tyres are something i'll never go cheap with. Blow a tyre at 100km/hr and it could be a disaster. Each to their own tho.
