    It has only taken 15 years and nine months...

    ...but the T4 finally has genuine all terrain tyres under it.



    After all this time (and many thousands of kilometres of dirt road) I finally came across some all terrain patterned light truck tyres in the 205/70R15 that is perfect size for the T4 and at 106 load rating well above what the thing needs.

    Bridgestone Dueler 697. And just $189 per corner fitted.

    So far much quieter (curiously) than the worn out and frankly not great Hankook van tyres that they replaced...

    Nice.

    I rate those as good tires, and capable.

    but I'm bias as i've had the 697's on my Hilux, Jimny and CRV, i found the noise quite low for a AT.

    Looking forward to the day they do a 215/60 R17 with a min 104 load rating.

    Bias or not you’re obviously very happy with them.
