Mine is only a 2.4 NF 2007 came with Dunlop Sp 270 great in the wet
horrible every where else and wore like blazes
Kumhos where out of stock as also have had some "issues" with
Hankooks a decade or so back.
But these seem ok and they got a work out on the way back tad noisy
though this morning - compared to the Bridgies
get sick of every one telling my I have flat tyres tho' :) bloody low
profile things
