Tempe tyres have really good specials at the moment

I had a set of cheapo Hurricanes on the crewman when i bought it and ended up suffering a similar fate.

Cheap tyres are crap.

I have since gone with Khumo and haven't had any complaints so far.

kumho's are worth a look.

i have used KU19's for the last 5 sets = 100000KM and have no complaints.

good grip wet and dry for what you pay.

not great mileage but bang for buck they get my vote.

Mate I use ku31's on my VE. 20x8.5 on front and 20x10 on rear (245's and 275's) and they are simply great. I pay on average about $235 a corner

keep an eye on ur pressures run them slightly higher 42psi to give the side walls a bit more solidarity

Take them back to where you got them from, if the tyre has delaminated you can put in a claim via the tyre dealer.
