Rep Power: 3 | Re: whats the best wearing tyre? I'd go for a light truck tyre, depending on what you want you can get BF Goodrich all terrains in sizes for commodores and falcons. Personally I run Firestone Steel ASR in 205/75R15LT which are combination of on and off road and are an 8 ply steel belt light truck tyre they give good traction and good lifetime too.

Rep Power: 2 | Re: whats the best wearing tyre? Kiwiutecowboy: Hey. Ive been using GT Radial Light truck tyres on my ute for years, but mine is a AU2 Ford Falcon, 2000 Mdl. I have just been told that it is not necessary to run on Light Trucks, so have recently converted to Bob Jane All Rounders, they are cost effective at $95 a tyre and last ages. My sisters fiance has had them on his ute for over a year and a half, and he drives on road and off road everyday on dirt tracks and swears by them. I am very pleased with mine too. Cheers
