you can get 700-15 bar treads but they are rare as rocking horse shit.....

you can even get 750-15 bar treads but they are like a LJ pto a mystical beast that roams the badlands and no one get to see them ever.....

Yes I still have a set of 5 bar treads on 16" rims, because they are hard to get I want decent money for them $400.

The tyres still have plenty of tread, in the pic you can see the wear indicators

Thanks but they are too far away from me, If you were in NSW I would take them.

How tall are they stroker? And are they hard or still a bit pliable?

Does it really have to be in NSW? Universal Tire in the US can ship tyres (or Tires!) to your door in about 7 days, but you need to phone or e-mail them to discuss the cheapest shipping method.

There's also an ebay seller who always has new 16" bar treads listed - I was considering some for my old jeep. Just checked - some there now.

cheers

Something to think about is that the current crop of bar treads are 6 ply whereas the original Suzuki Bridgestones were 4 ply.

I'd be wanting something softer in the sidewall on such a light vehicle.
