ended up going for the bfg mt km2, ordered them and they arrived next day but what i received was a set of km tyres and not the km2s so they are going back tomorrow so still tyreless and running out of time

I didn't even think the kms were still available..did you notice what the DOT code was? The 2s came out 4 years ago.

2011 then I guess...? No more digits in the oval box at the end? Normally a week and a year like 4811

Ahh...I think there may be more on the other side of the tyre...

it is, 0208

the white lettering doesnt look that new does it..

its covered in a blue skin to protect it, i told the company that i could use the tyres if they gave me a serious discount and he said he´d knock of 8 quid a tyre i said no thanks so they are being picked up tomorrow, looks like i´ll have to get some at the last minute when i get to the UK

A bit overkill but vw now recommend tyres are changed at 6 years old! BFGs do seem to age well but then again those are not really "new" are they!

Who were those off then?

a danish company called dækbutiken but thats just a webshop so dont really know who´s trying to empty out their old stock

I run km2s, damned good tyre, hope you get sorted soon.

ordered km2`s with another supplier, now to wait and see what turns up
