Yes , but as he said that size isn't legal in Australia.
Yeah, now looking for 34's as 35s are too much trouble on this vehicle (though theu do fit)

Thanks @DaveB I am actually tossing up between those 2.
I really want the KM3s, I have always wanted KM3s, but running mud tyres when there is a lot pavement to get where youre going bothers me..
The HD terrains look decent, but I wonder if they are too hard. They are a new tyre, marked as "commercial" and intended for big American trucks, so not sure if they are going to be any good on the Grenadier. (Edit- they also don't have any of the sidewall tech the ko2 and km3s do)
Other options available are
Cooper ST Maxx
Yokohama Geolander at 015 and x-at 016
Nitto Ridge Grablers
None of which I particularly like, probability am a bit of a BFG tragic, but of them x-at 016s are the 3rd in the trifeca choice. They appear very similar to the HD terrainns

These are just starting to hit the market here in the US... From a friend that has them (and lots of BFG KO2 experience), they are noticeably louder than the KO2s, quieter than KM2s, but seem to do quite well in mud conditions and are great in dirt with good on road stability; much like the large new spectrum of "R/T" (opposed to A/T or M/T) tires that have been coming out in recent years
Interesting. I actually thought they might have been more old school super tough tyres based on the old ply tyres they had on land rovers and toyotas. Rough as guts but bulletproof.

My experience as well although other models.
Have your wheels arrived yet. I have some on order as well. Keen to see more photos of them on Grenadiers.
No not yet, expectation is next week apparently.
Sounds like it. Transport company picking mine up tomorrow. I’m in Brisbane so hopefully have them by the end of the week from Melbourne.
I wonder why.
Simple, too much mud on the East Coast. Big outer blocks really help, and RT patterns clear better with the larger/deeper center voids. Duratracs are just AT’s. I had them on my D1 at one point and the were super vague in snow and didn’t clear mud.
The Bridgestones are actually pretty impressive, especially for not being an aggressive tire; LTX M/S are in a similar place of being deceptively good in all but mud situations.
A quick use of the search will yield you a number of them...
