At the moment my Disco is running on Goodyear Wrangler HP's, and to be honest I find them a bit crap, with limited grip on/off road in the wet.

They're getting to the last 3-4mm of tread, so its time for a change.

What are you people out there using? I'd like an AT type tyre, and the BFG's look quite good, but I'm willing to look at other makes.

if you want a good all-round tyre, i don't think you can beat BFG All terrain. There's cheaper ones about but you pay for what you get. i've got over-sized ones on my freelander, plus they look mint. :roll:

I'm using Hankook M/Ts on my Disco and can't fault them. I 'pushed' the size slightly to 245/75 and although a little light on wet tarmac, the absolute biz in mud :D

I'm using BFG ATs, 265 size and have had no problems with them so far, they seem to handle everything OK.

I'm using Cooper STT size 265/75/16 the extra ground clearance makes all the differance, super tyre in the sticky stuff and not too noisey on the road :D

We've gone for BFG MTs 235 / 85 with a 2" lift on our Disco - had them fitted this week and they look great.

We have used Colways for years (slightly smaller 235 / 70) and they were good too on and off road. They nearly failed the MOT this time, so we needed replacements for the Rally we're going on.

I have been running on Goodyear MTR's for ages now and they seem to be lasting very well.

Bit pricey but well worth a look if you are upgrading.

hankook mt 15's on 10inch wide rims ,,, and i have never needed a winch lol,, also i find they are not too noisy during road use and feel good at 90-100,,, you can also fill them with mud and drive careful untill you need to sort out a tailgater and then floor it and empty your tyres over their car lol :D :D :D
evil laugh ha ha ha ha ha
