I'd be interested in those tyres - they are similar OD to my Coopers (tad smaller than 27"). These ones are also on the cards -:

Fang afaik these tyres are not available in Australia.
i tried to get a set a while back, and i ended up speaking to an Aus Rep. And they dont get them in. not in the 27" size anyways.
The only kumho tyres in 27" for dirty terrain are the 834.

sucks. but apparently Australia isnt big enough nor do we have enough demand to get these delicious looking rubber imported.

I have 4x Kumho MT's in ok condition and 1 brand new if someone is interested in some 2nd hand treads (although i am thinking that it may be simple and cheeper to keep local).

Good luck getting the other stuff though.
Toyota 105 Series LandCruiser (that nobody on here wants to really hear about).
RX Touring Wagon - fitted out for 4WDing (currently collecting dust).
RX Project - will be road only at this stage (and currently taking way to long to finish).

Curious - I was told by a local tyre mob I couldnt have the 834s - but could get the others. Admittedly that was a few months ago. If you can get a price Justin - I could be interested.

834s you can get, but not the kl71.
834s prices are around 180 a pop.
so im guessing kl71 will be around there if not more?
but then the bulk buy might help that out a little
