what's the import duty for tyres and the best economical way to ship, ocean freight?

Remember tires are essentially the most important piece of kit on a vehicle... its where de vehicle meets the driving surface.... lose traction and no amount of engine upgrades or taiwanese chrome kit could save yuh!
i cyah see de logic in buying used tires / cheapo tires to put on a vehicle... especially a pickup dat has screwed up vehicle dynamics to begin with. personally i runnin bfg AT's .... and it real bess.... expensive as crap but works well. run thru de tire ched, lots of recommendations and personal experience..... michelin, pirelli, bfg, goodyear, kumho etc etc.
ohho and jus a heads up.... don't go buying yuh bfg in a lil small mango tree tire shop and den be confused why de tires falling apart after a coupla weeks..... still with de authorised dealers!
I have a couple of Hilux 15" magrims with AT tyres that i can put in the back and the 16" in front, where I can buy the new tyres. Will the 265/70-16 work with the 31x10.5-15 on 4x4?

^^i trust the info from this site, and i have proven it to be true....
i did this already on high traction surface, the van was very resistant, felt like something holding it back, switched off 4WD one time.....
on loose surface i cud hear the tires opposing one another, so again i switched off 4WD, in fear of uck fuping some thing,
on very very slippery surface, the difference was almost not noticeable, im talking about sapatay slush mud here.....still didnt work the 4WD for long...
i jus wanted to test the theory and see what results were for myself, i would not recommend it...
if u must use different brands, they MUST be the SAME SIZE rim and diameter for your 4WD to work and function properly and not destroy itself.......
out of all the tires you have shown, i will choose the freestones, they look like the most aggressive of the bunch......but do some research, FS had a recall IIRC...

i'd just hold out, dont want to rush into that right now and have a heavy expense in the long haul
