the bf goodritch at's and genral grabber at's are good

are you staying the same size or going bigger

a mate has his trooper a couple of size's larger than standard and it looks awesome

I would highly recommend the BFG mud terrains. I have had 2 sets now and they are great.

BFG mud terrains everytime.

 

I used to run coopers on my landy, and have experience with other cheaper mud terrains. They do perform well offroad, but they dont last long at all in comparison to BFG's.

BFG mud terrains are not true winter tyres. A true winter tyre will have the "snowflake on the mountain" symbol and be made of special rubber compound and tread pattern to grip in cold conditions.

 

M+S approval (mud and snow) is perhaps more suitable and I dare say the BFGs will have this approval, but they are really a mud tyre and not well suited to your average conditions in the UK.

 

If you need a mud tyre the the BFG MT is about the best you can get, but their all terrains might be a better all round tyre. If you want a full winter tyre then Conti 4x4 WinterContact are excellent.

mud terrains if you have the money, who cares about the extra noise and fuel consumption, at least you shouldnt get stuck.. oh did you say trooper.?

[samarb]

I use BFG AT had them last winter and really good at driving in snow and ice and they last alot longer than MT.

ironbark has hit hte nail on the head here,, if you want a MUD tyre then the MUD terrain will be great, but don't expect any magic in the snow/ ice,, grabber at2's are M+S rated,, good in snow and i use them on the D3 with no problem,, good on fuel and not too noisy..
