    Anyone ever heard of a brand of tyres called Ling Long, local tyre centre stocks them,could do with a new set for tractor but no point buying sh**e. Anyone have them on their tractor?

    Bought a set of bkt’s Last week, they are about a while and fairly cheap while still being classified as good, what sort of coin are they and what size?

    The name is nearly enough to turn me off. Ling long is such a bad name. They would want to be a lot cheaper than bkt agrimax. Bkt agrimax are a very good budget tyre I find.

    I know the linglongs have been around as truck tyres for a good few years and are popular enough due to price. No idea about as tractor tyres tho.
    My neighbour had bkts that cracked and split at the rims after a few years. Wouldn't inspire me.

    Often wondered about taking a punt on buying a few tyres in say poland n sticking on a pallet.

    Thanks, I was on to a crowd in the north, seemed like good value but I changed it to Euro plus 20% vat, 100 pound to courier to west cork, its nearly easier to get the local man to bring the tyres out and fit them. It's like buying most things on the net. It would be interesting to know about the cheap tyres tho, some one had to be the first to try bkts too

    Got a set of Ling Longs last year off the good old Mick in Leitrim. 540/65/30's. Nothing has happened them yet,no lugs splitting off etc.

    Plus the lad in the north is no good to you when you get a puncture and need a call out.
