The performance characteristics of winter tyres become compromised at higher temperatures (above +7°C) compared to summer tyres.

However, there is nothing in the regulations which prevent you from using such tyres year-round.

MALAS
Maxxis SUV & Recreational MALAS VANPRO

UE-103
Maxxis Light & Heavy Truck UE-103 RADIAL

My OEM Continental Vanco's finally wore out after a meagre 118,000km

Thanks to the positive vibe I ended up with the UE-103 for $168ea fitted/balanced/disposal fee.

I couldn't justify being a forum Guinea Pig for the MALAS at $180/pr premium, as doubt I'll see much gravel/snow. $213ea for the MALAS for the record if anyone wanted them. If interested they are designed as a 75/25 (on/off) mix.

These were best prices I found in the Illawarra, but there were limited retailers offering them, so didn't take too many phone calls. I got them at Wollongong Auto Excellence at 4 Glebe Street, Wollongong. Friendly competent service I would recommend to others.

If you get the UE-103's make sure they order the correct load rating, as there are two available in the 215/65R16C

Hi all,

I had 4 new Toyo H08 215 65R16C 104/106T tyres fitted today to my 2008 Multivan. $230 each fitted (from Tyre Power). Great looking tyre pattern and extremely quiet and made in Japan too. Well worth a look if you are considering new tyres.

I was impressed how careful the guys were with not scratching the higher out edge of the rims!

Regards, Scott

Hi Scott, do you mind letting me know which store, pm if preferred. looking at a set for my van and our car and last check was over $2800.

[Silver Caravelle]

Hi Tornado, It is Tyre Power on Blackburn Road Notting Hill. Good guys (owner/Franchisee) without the attitude. And they aware of the issues of easily marking the rims. The Toyos are an extremely quite tyre and great tread pattern. Cheers, Scott

I run 215 65 16 Federal econvan's on my t5 transporter and get great milage out of them, anywhere from 100000 to best I've got is 136000. I will admit that is mostly highway work and mostly late night and early morning. We do carry considerable weight but it is a dimimishing load so half the time it is empty. Overall I am happy with them

[Silver Caravelle]

Hi Batty,

That's exceptional mileage. Well done!

Scott

Well, our 2011 Multivan have now done 24000km and the front tyres (OEM Dunlops 16"s) are 1mm above the legal limit and due for replacement

This has to be of the worst tyre performance I have ever seen on any of my cars ....

That's pretty bad Sharkie.

I got 57K out of my OEM Dunlops! I impressed so far with the Toyos after two weeks. The Toyo HO8s are supposed to be a good wearing tyre i.e. greater than the 57K I got out of my Dunlops. They really quiet and comfortable and are gripping well whilst bedding in.
