South Africa's best-selling bakkie. Raider derivatives since 2016 mostly use 265/65 R17, except the 2018-2020 Raider and current Legend on 265/60 R18. Workhorse S and SR models use 205/70 R15 or 225/70 R17 on steel wheels, often C-rated for load, so match the load index when replacing.
Before you order, check the size on the sticker inside the driver's door or on your current tyres: derivatives and wheel options change the size. Read how to read a tyre size or when to replace tyres.
