not sure i agree with the BFG trading on their name!!

BFG's are made by Michelin who make pretty much the best tyres out there.

i used to have general grabbers on my ranger but find the BFG's better on wet tarmac

BFG's and gernerals both have wet grip rating of a B but personally have found the BFG's more predictable! 

That's okay, you don't have to agree!

The BFs are not what they were as the treads are now shallower to comply with noise legislation (according to local tyre firm)

That's interesting as a couple of times recently on mud I've thought my BFGs just weren't what they used to be.  At the time I put it down to over expectation by myself but the circumstances did leave me disappointed.

Kumho kl 71 on both land rovers very quiet on road, mate of mine runs them on a old L200 he uses for picking up on shoot and stalking were that truck gets is unbelievable. 
Keep wondering what to put on my defender next, but still have tubes in the tyres which I think makes it complicated? Or can I just put them on with tubes in?

Both my land rovers run modular wheels as 90 runs 33x12.5 15 and 130 runs 265/75r 16 so both tubeless.
