Wont ever forget those Wrangles MTS I got for the White Troll - just looked awesome.
The 265's were destined for the 80 Series cruiser in Nam but that will probably end up with 285 as well. Was just checking...
Any news on the seat covers yet?

When you are interested in buying let me know and I can get pricing. Prices fluctuate with R/$ exchange and it never seems to be in our favour.

Re: New Powermax tyres
So ever since fitting the M/T's I have had a bit of a shudder on the steering wheel between 90 and 100 km/h. Tried to sort out by balancing at 3 different places, removing wheel spacers, replacing some worn front suspension bushes etc but no joy.
Eventually worked out that 2 of the tyres where not exactly round so back to the fitment centre who phoned the distributor Auto & Truck Tyres in Wadeville. Note that they where not the distributor when I originally purchased the tyres.
Received a call from them the next day, took the vehicle to them, they determined that 2 of the tyres where out plus checked the spare which was also not round, did not have replacements in stock, brought 3 up from Durban and fitted them today. Awesome no nonsense service and no charge for tread used or anything else. I had done almost 7 000 km on them.

Re: New Powermax tyres
Before you trek out to Germiston go see Tinus's dude at Autowiel Centurion. They where the guys that picked up the "not round" problem.Oetie wrote: ↑02 Jul 2019 14:14That is indeed excellent service!!

Without writing a book this happens to all tyres premium or budget and happens in the manufacturing process. It is highly unlikely that all of our tyres have the same problem.

Re: New Powermax tyres
Thanks David M; they fitted the tyres and changed them a few weeks ago identifying that what is now my rear wheels are not round.
