I'm really happy with mine. They've only been on for about 4,500k. Minimul road noise. Only been on gravel roads in H4, but very happy.
No 'wobbles', either.

It's an ex Telstra set up all round. If Rossco finds this thread I'm sure he can explain more about it mate.

Hey Kevin,
I have a set of KL71s on the GU IV in a 285/75/16 and reckon they are THE BEST MUD TYRE I HAVE EVER RUN that is not a SIMEX.
I have had these on the GU IV for about 25,000kms now and They are AWSOME.
I have just done a 6000km trip up through the Centre and they got a good workout in all sorts of terrain. So here goes.
Firstly I PAID $235 A TYRE DELIVERED TO MY DOOR (that is not a miss print folks)
These tyres replace Cooper STs and they are Quieter on the road.
They are great on Bitumen and offer really good grip, no tyre roll, great breaking, great around corners and just Great road manners.
At 15,000kms i rotated for the first time and they were just about at the bottom of the first block (3mm wear) with heaps to go all done of the bitumen.
I did the next 6000 in 3 weeks.
I did 2000 in the rain on Bitumen and they were sure footed and good feedback, great grip and Just awesome.
I did 3000 in the dirt, these did not chip at all offered great grip, great feel, incredible stopping with a trailer on.
Sand - Just ate it up without a drama,
Mud - Did someone say MUD? Un-believable !!! I did sections of the Old Ghan coming into Mt Dare with 300m sections of flooded wheel ruts and no way round. Plowed through the middle dragging a 1.2t trailer with out a worry. Did i need my Simexs? thought i would but these thing just DID IT!.
These are my Touring tyres and what a great choice they are.
10 out 0f 10 to Mr Kuhmo for the KL71s, Just AWESOME.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
