These seem to be Hercules tyres. Maybe toyo under anoter name but they dont seem for sale in Australia from toyo.

Here's what I found...

Not quite what you're looking for but these look really cool....

Think there might be an error on their sizing page - or else you'll get a very nasty shock when you buy 285/75/16 :D

I have no idea what they're like but I spotted a set of 4 near new on new sunnies for 700 bucks.

Toyo i though are generally a heavy truck / van tyre with thick treat and sidewall ply construction.....ie damn heavy tyre to have on a 4B, no side wall flex....good i surpose for a road set.
i don't need no stinking quote for my sig. line!

Toyo.

The Hercules (Toyo) tyres in question come under the banner of SUV tyres. The 235/85/16 are a 10 ply like all 4wd tyres this size probably because of the high sidewalls in relation to the width.
I doubt they would be as heavy as truck tyres though.
Thanks for the tip though I will check it out.
