All Terrain Tyres

[gensetsteve]

Crickey mine do. I dont tow a lot of weight, usually 2 cube of logs or some stoves so about a tonne or thereabouts on twin axle trailers.

 

LANDROVER forum suggests BFGs last maybe 10% longer than ATs, however BFGs are not available in all sizes, when I bought my last ATs they were not avail.

are you driving a d3 or d4 I think part of the problem is heat from low profile tyres also the 3.5 tonnes of weight of vehicle and 255 hp = new tyres every year at £800

It all depends on where you are, I have at2 on my hilux, there great on sandy gritty mud, just moved to Herefordshire and the clay mud kills them. I'm looking at mud terrain for the winter and keep the grabbers for the summer. Another problem is they have stopped producing them.. I was lucky enough to get hold of some of the last ones in the country. I think bf may be the closest you'll get.

They do the at now not as aggressive, but nice looking tyre with good road manners. May even be better on clay. I have never used a GG at but have felt the bfg at are a little out of date for road use and wondered if the GG have better road manners.

I use to have 265/70/R17 General Grabber AT2 on the Navara but they don't make them anymore. I now have Cooper AT3 tyres on all the corners. They're OK on the road. If you hit that high grip tarmac on the M25 past Heathrow then the noise is deafening although it was bad with the GG. Other than that than their OK work best on gritty stuff rather than boggy mud though.

 

As for MPG i think there has been a slight improvement over the AT2s.

There is not alot of choice in the 255 55 19 size but the only aggresive tread is GG at

Cant find BFG's at 245/70/16, but can get the GG AT's for £512 fitted locally. Not bad really.

Could buy them cheaper, delivered from a couple of places, but then they wanted another 40 -50 for delivery up here. And then fitting on top. Just settled for ATS in the end.

Sometimes worth getting them to price match and lever it down a bit. Problem with tyres posted and fitted who takes responsability if they go out of shape.
