Is the 3ply not the X3? We have some on trailers. A M/T type Tyre.
For the Tyre size mentioned we pay sub R2k per Tyre. Get about 25000km per set of tires in our terrain. This daily driving. For those around PE area this is the Anne's Villa/Zuurberg Addo pass road as well as the Krom DR02027

Re: Tyres for bakkie
The X3 is the mud terrain and is standard 3 ply sidewall but on the AT3 there are two versions. The LT (Light Truck) spec ones also have 3 ply sidewalls and are a bit more expensive. This was how it was presented to me by the manager at Best Drive when I fitted these to my bakkie and as stated 55 000KM and some very poor, rocky roads driven regularly and I have yet to sustain tyre damage.
The same cannot be said for the tyres on my boat trailer that is usually in tow when going to Eswatini. I have lost two tyres on the trailer in the last 6 months due to sidewall cuts and had another tyre lose a slice of sidewall, fortunately without losing air but unfortunately also needing to be replaced for safety reasons.

Re: Tyres for bakkie
I have a q5 with Falken wildpeak at3w on it. When I took it for a test drive I was shocked how quiet they are on tar. Honestly thought it would sound bad .fuel economy seems fine for what the manufacturer claims.i honestly don’t like the falken brand but when doing some research online others were saying they pretty good. Here in Durban it has been raining a lot lately and I don’t have a issue with grip .Can’t speak for them other than that ,I have only had the vehicle for 2months.
