The notion that you might get 80 000km of driving out of your tyres sounds like pure fiction, right? As for off-road tyres achieving that, well that’s bordering on science fiction.

The notion that you might get 80 000km of driving out of your tyres sounds like pure fiction, right? As for off-road tyres achieving that, well that’s bordering on science fiction.

Or is it? Apparently not, because not only are Tiger Wheel Tyre and Hankook offering an off-road tyre they say will reach 80 000km, but they’re taking it one step further and guaranteeing that it will.

The two companies announced their introduction of South Africa’s first mileage warranty on all-terrain tyres. The innovative warranty guarantees buyers that their all-terrain Hankook Dynapro AT-M RF10 tyres will reach 80 000km.

The warranty is straightforward and applies to the purchase of two or more Hankook Dynapro AT-M RF10 tyres in sizes 15 to 18 inch.

Every 10 000km thereafter, the vehicle must be returned to Tiger Wheel Tyre for tyre rotation, balancing and alignment checking. In addition, tyre pressure must be checked monthly and tyres inflated to the manufacturer’s specification.

In the event of the tyres not reaching the guaranteed 80 000 km, customers will receive credit towards a new or equivalent Hankook tyre of the same size. The compensation is based on a calculation against the mileage already used on the tyre and the usable tread life left, terms and conditions apply.
