Re: tyres????
That's gonna open up the can of worms.....
Seriously..... Some folks recommend certain brands of tyres/wear rates etc...... Van Tyres tend to give the best wear but can be uncomfortable and hard ride for some drivers.....some budget brands are poor on wear rate but easy on the pocket.....
I leave it to my forum colleagues to give their input for you....

Re: tyres????
Without checking to see if they make the same size as you already have, I had a full set of Toyo H08 tyres put on in April and am absolutely delighted with them. I had pondered a variety of tyres, but when I finally went down to our local tyre place with my list of suggestions, the man said that he's fitted these to at least half a dozen Bongos and also most of the MPV/minivan taxis in town. Good enough recommendation for me, and so far I am really pleased with them.
