Yea got that up the other night after the muddies thread..

I see that's the done thing for mining gear tyres..

I did a trip to cape york on remoulded tyres a few years ago. Never had a flat or problem at all. Still drove on em for a couple of years later without issue.

I really can't see how that company would make much of a profit if it takes several hours to do one tyre. Interesting though.

Ever priced a Truck Tyre ;)

80% of Prime Movers and B Doubles would run a full ReMould on all wheels except the 2 front Steer tyres that would generally be premium first use tyres.

Big bucks there.

As you can appreciate though a company doing that same process for Car Tyres out of Asia somewhere may not be so diligent!

When you get the main construction of the tyre of free its very cheap. And then employees on $5/h its very cheap

trying to use MC crappa

I Ran 33" MONGRELS of my Troopy. $200 a corner, speed rated to 120 kph,
Delaminated most and they were directional, Still have brand new one here.
Took them back for warranty after Rep said yes even knowing Motorway was going under.
So Summing up did my dollars. tread was same as Centipedes, awesome off road,
WHAT WAS THAT on road lol

You lost me.. so they delaminated?
So you got them on warranty even though you used them on the high way?
But they were awesome off-road?
No good on bitumen.

Think hes saying that he went to return the faulty tyres under warranty but cause they were closing down they didnt honour it so he lost out.

4by you got it, great tyre off road, could not hear your self think on hwy. And yes they delaminated as chucks flew off them .
very low speed rating , Company going under and did not honour warranty, Will put up pic, they are nearly a 34" x 13",pretty close to a Bogger I say
Actually paid $180 a corner as I was first to fit Motorway Mongrels
