  • Tyres for best on/off road compromise?

    In February my good lady and i are going to live in France for a year to do some work on a lake and some land we have luckily acquired.
    We are taking the Surf and towing our caravan over with it.When we get there i am going to be using the Surf for some real workhorse applications which include towing large trailers full of heavy wood etc off road and pulling fallen trees out of the lake.
    I'm just after some advice on what tyres would provide a good compromise between road use and would still provide some good off road/towing grip.
    I now have standard 15'' wheels courtesy of Marky.(Thanx mate)
    Any recommendations folks?

              Everyone is welcome POP,there is a lot of work to be done on the land/lake.If you can handle hard graft followed by some fishing/BBQ's/chilling out in the French summer evenings and drinking beer and wine then come on over....

                  Thanks for that Mark but can you recommend a tyre 'cos i'm a bit clueless on 4 X 4 tyres?
                  Fireblades and Impreza's yes......4 x 4's NO.
