Hey Guys,
The time has come to replace the tyres on my 2016 18.58-2 outback.

One just went flat and the others are wearing so figure I might just replace all 4. I am pretty unimpressed by their handling of gravel roads as they got chewed up a bit too. They also suffered wear pretty quick too.

What would you recommend I replace them with? Size is 235/75/R15.

Cheers

Brad

Go for a LT rated tyre, a load rating of about 112 depending on weights but its a good standard. Don't go for an aggressive off road tread they are not driven wheels so a mild ATR or highway tread is best, chunky stuff chips easily and wears more turning.
I have Geolanders on Big Mal, good quality tyre which will give many years reliable service, personal choice but don't go for some no name brand as a van tyre really gets a harder time than the tugs and you want to get life measured in years.
