    Tyres are a very local commodity - you'll probably find they're a very different tyre from that in Australia, USA or EU. I know I read about various models in USA - and they're not available here. And made in different places to different specifications depending on local requirements. Our roads tend to be poor in places, with the possibility of gravel and dirt - meaning that a tyre which is good in EU - with possibilities of more rain, ice and snow - aren't offered here, or in a different construction and materials.

    I'd be asking locally for advice.
