bit the bullit today & threw on a set of 33" bighorns on my GU, replacing the Cooper ST 33" I have had on for 5 yrs & 65,000kms, I have had some good feedback from Club members etc but would like a more general viewpoint from here, please give me your feedback as I have spent $1400 very hard earned coin

Brad had them on Amelia - he does a lot of driving on the road & they wore more than he had hoped BUT not as much as he was expecting from opinions he'd received. (They were on when he bought her)

Overall he was very happy with them. Great in the mud :)

Bit late for opinions now,. seeing you've already paid for them
Check the search engine theres been a few threads lately on them.
mostly good from memory.

Who does 65K in 5 yrs, not your daily driver I take

Try paying for 3 patrol regos in QLD now thats fun :(. You will get 65k out of em mate and the general consensus is they are a very good all round tyre that is very competitively priced. I am not a fan but plenty of people are there are better tyres out there but obviously you will be paying more for them. You will be very satisfied with your purchase

Thats just rude, what justifies those prices, you must have great roads, and not looking forward to the electricity bill either
had a chance for solar on the house too, gunna be kicking myself if all reports are true, some bills double.
