1. America’s Specialty 4WD Tyre Company
- 4 different carcass constructions: Bias, Bias-Belted, Radial and PowerPly
- Huge range of specialty sizes
- Off-road racing tyre specialists
2. Deeper Tread
Having 12.5% deeper tread than most other brands means more grip, more kilometres and more resistance to damage.
3. Stronger Sidewalls
20% more rubber in the upper sidewall reduces the chance of sidewall damage. Thicker sidewalls means Mickey Thompson Tires have a higher load capacity than many other brands.
4. Sidewall Protection
Deep sidebiters take the punishment and reduce sidewall damage. Mickey Thompson’s stand up straighter compared to other brands, which means they are less prone to damage.
5. Leaders in 4×4 Tread Technology
Sipes – All sipes are within the tread block to reduce chipping and tearing.
Modern Tread Pattern – Latest designs have high volume water channels to clear water quickly. The sipe shape reduces tread squirm for better grip and faster steering response.
6. Ultimate Angle for cutting and Self-Cleaning
23° is the ultimate angle for cutting and self-cleaning (used on plough blades, tractor tyres & razor blades). This means you get maximum traction and the same level of road noise as less aggressive tyres.
7. Deeper Sidebiters
- A unique step design for climbing out of ruts
- Positioned to protect the sidewall from off-road damage
8. Specialty Sizes
Mickey Thompson Tires have the world’s largest and most diverse range of 4X4 sizes from 30” to 54” diameters and 8” to 19.5” wide!
With the world’s largest range of specialty sizes, off road tread patterns and carcass constructions, you too can experience the legendary performance of Mickey Thompson’s off road 4×4 tyres….and Be Part of the Legend.
IRONMAN
Snow Country Automotive are the area’s exclusive distributor of Ironman 4×4 products. On road or off the beaten track, Australia’s first choice for 4×4 Suspension and Accessories is Ironman 4×4. Whether you use your 4×4 as a family vehicle or as an off road explorer, Ironman 4×4 has the products that will deliver the comfort and safety you demand. Ironman 4×4 products have been developed in the harshest proving ground in the world, Australia. Sold in more than 120 countries. For over 50 years customers have put their trust in Ironman 4×4 because Ironman 4×4 delivers quality and value for money.
Ironman 4×4 products are designed in Australia and distributed throughout the world. Originally established in 1958, as a Melbourne based suspension parts manufacturer, named Jacob Spring Works. The company in 1982 took shape as JSW Parts, (short for Jacob Spring Works) to design and supply leaf and coil springs for cars, trucks, buses and 4×4 vehicles. JSW Parts soon became well known as a manufacturer and supplier of suspension parts all around the world.
In 1988 JSW Parts launched the Ironman 4×4 brand of springs and suspension parts in response to the increasing popularity of 4×4 vehicles, recognizing that standard suspension systems alone were not designed to cope with additional loads of bull bars, winches and extra fuel tanks. Driven by explosive sales of 4×4’s, in 2004 the Ironman 4×4 range of products expanded quickly to meet the demand of off road users seeking solutions which would allow their vehicles to go off road loaded with accessories such as winches, recovery equipment, protective bars, canopies, lighting and electrical upgrades.
Today the vast continent of Australia serves as the perfect testing ground for Ironman 4×4 products, so whether crossing the outback in search of adventure or just driving the children to school in your local suburb, Ironman 4×4 can offer quality and value for money.
Many fleet and military organisations throughout the world have acknowledged the quality design and manufacture of Ironman 4×4 products. Together with these serious solutions, Ironman 4×4 products are also chosen the world over by offroad competition teams and drivers, and have successfully completed the Dakar Rally.
Ironman 4×4 products are stocked at our four warehouses in Melbourne, Newcastle, Brisbane and Perth. All warehouses are computer linked to our National Call Centre at the Melbourne head office.
Ironman 4×4 provide great value for money solutions for all sectors within the 4×4 industry, with a versatile and forward thinking approach, whether it be recreational, military or commercial use.

SUPER PRO BUSHES
The base material used by Super Pro is a polyurethane elastomer; a class of “Thermosetting” synthetic polymer that involves the reaction of various types of isocyanate resins with curing agents, to give an extremely durable material with the best features of rubber and plastic. Since the introduction of polyurethane into the aftermarket suspension industry in the early 80’s many have tried but few have succeeded in manufacturing accurate, durable parts consistently. Anyone can take two tins and mix part A with part B and get a result. It takes foresight in management and a strong integration with technology to achieve a result every time, which is what Super Pro prides itself on.
Super Pro bushings can be used in strut bars, radius rods and trailing arm locations, which will improve the road holding, handling and tyre wear of any passenger car or 4WD. This is possible because Super Pro products achieve consistent tyre-to-road-alignment, particularly under braking and cornering loads. In many cases there is little or no effect on NVH, thanks to careful design by our R & D technicians.
Super Pro polyurethane suspension bushes are not copies of the OE rubber components. They are specially developed from the ground-up to take advantage of this material’s unique properties. Polyurethane bushes by Super Pro are unique as they are the only polyurethane products fully backed by a professional research and development program with many years of hands-on experience in the automotive suspension industry.
Super Pro R & D includes rigorous testing in the lab, on the street and on the track. Super Pro innovates with the latest technology in polyurethane & suspension design to give our customers the best possible suspension and chassis solutions.
- Experience with leading automotive manufacturers
- Innovations that are tested in the most extreme conditions; from Antarctica to the Sahara
- Flexible, state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities underpin superior quality
- At a glance, some of the benefits from Super Pro products will include:
- Maintained steering geometry
- Enhanced handling & ride characteristics
- A safer vehicle with more grip
- Superior replacement and repair performance – get back that “new car feel”
- Improved tyre wear, fuel efficiency and reduced running costs
Our experience has shown that modern vehicles today do not have provision for wheel alignment correction and as the vehicle’s suspension softens with age, they begin to wander or steer off in one direction. Replacing with Super Pro bushings and parts rectifies this by the removal of excess compliance in the suspension system without affecting NVH (Noise Vibration and Harshness).
Equally, the standard alignment settings designed in to modern vehicles may be within tolerance but that tolerance can be very broad resulting in high tyre wear. A lack of available adjustment and the need for specific alignment settings for off-road, performance or high mileage commercial has driven Super Pro to develop its extensive “Value Add” alignment correction product range.
- Backed by 30+ years of automotive industry experience in the toughest environments in the world, Australia
- Supported by a full time, dedicated Research & Development Team
- Export experience in Australia, Africa, Europe, America and Asia makes Super Pro suited for all markets and global applications
