Hello Folks
the brand of tyre is 'Jetzon', they're a US company and I believe the tyres are made in the USA.
if you want a bit of a look at the tyre range try:

you'll note that the speed rating is 'T' which is a higher speed rating than the BFGs (S) but less than the Yokies (H) - the BFGs and Yokies being the two brands that I was originally considering. Temp, grip and durability ratings are comparable to the BFGs.
I'm looking at a set in the 'traditional' 235/60/15 + 295/50/15 combo
and orginally just asked for a price on the 295's, the price I've been given is less than the BFGs (which are substantially less than the Yokohamas).
Anyway, i'm aware that a lot of you have gone for 17in rims but would still like a feel for what people are running to see if we can organise a club discount...
so if you could give me some feedback (no commitment required) - please
thankyou in anticipaiton
