Mine has 255/35/18`s on spiders, currently sitting in the back of my daily driver,resplendant with their new khumo`s.

After a 700 mile trip "up North" last weekend, I arrived home with a flat.... the last 20 miles had been slow so don`t know how far I had driven on a deflated SO3.

The tyre had been repaired (!)by the previous owner(!)the inner patch had become detached... possibly due to running flat...possibly not.

This is the second Bridgestone that has failed on the car,previous history unknown, I recon the Khumo`s could be a reasonable option, anyone else tried them ??
