    Do you rotate your tyres evey 5,000km?
    Also I pump them up to 50psi pressure.

    On my T4 Caravelle I purchased the OEM Goodyear Cargo load rated tyres. About $200 each fitted.

    The new Multivan came with Dunlops as the OEM tyre.

    Regards,

    Just to update, I was quoted today $184 each fitted for the OEM Goodyear Cargo load rated tyres from K-mart Tyre Service. Beaurepaires quoted $275 each!! but quoted $180 each 6 months ago (balanced and fitted).

    If yr going to have them fitted at Kmart, find someone who works in the Coles network and see if you can borrow their staff card, you get an extra 5% off (just check first that tyres are included in the discounting)

    Thanks Garth. The price is inclusive of balancing and fitting, with no further discount. I do not have access to someone with a card.

    Regards,

    Latest price on the DynaPro HP's is $235 each. Was offered Michelins and Yokohamas for $500+ each. I can't justify that. Have just ordered four of the DynaPro.

    Cheers,
    Was it DynaPro RA23?
    I was told on Monday at Bob Jane that DynaPro HP was not available. RA23 replaces DynaPro HP. I check the RA23 tread pattern and it looks almost identical to HP. I didn't check for differences in construction between the two.
    Still less expensive than others.
