Can some knowledgable person please tell me if Firestone Firehawk 108S are suitable for a Nissan Terrano to put on the back wheels and do you think they would be All terrains or now hmmmm.They are the right size but don't know what 108S means and I don't want snow tires .

108S most likely means they are rated to 1000kg of weight (each) and speed rated to 180km/h

Ohhhh thank you for that.lol at speed rating hmmm wonder if Nissan Terrano Diesel would fly apart if it reached that speed going down a big hill :-)Thanks for your help much appreciated.

with a 100k speed limit it should be fine

Were you looking for all terrain type tyres!

Yes it would.

With 4wd it is important to have the front and rear tyres the same size otherwise drivetrain damage may occur. If the Firehawks are the same size as the fronts, then all should be ok.

Hey thanks for all the posts, yeap these tyres are the same size as the front ones.Have new ones on the front but on a budget for the rear tyres and about to do a big road trip!
