        BF Goodrich A/T's seam to be the favourite for general road & offroad use but they seam a bit rare at the moment, if you already run 265/70/r16 tyres dont go to 265-75-16 as they will hit your front wheelarches. i get my tyres from
        http://www.bronco4x4.com as they are local to me

          Firstly, 31x10.50x16 is roughly the same size so look for those too.
          Secondly, Kumho A/T's are a reasonable cheap alternative, and wear well - at £57 each fitted, balanced etc they are good value. They are slightly more noisy than the BFG's but you gets what you pay for (A BFG A/T will set you back around £80-90).
          Thirdly, as you're down this way try Micheldever Tyres (nr Andover) they are generally very cheap and have good stocks, they also know surfs - we've had them do our cars a few times and they havent f***** up yet.

          When people say 50:50 or 80:20 they are describing the percentage of on/off roading. An All Terrain (A/T) tyre is intended for people doing a majority road work, with a bit of off roading. A Mud Terrain (M/T) tyre is more agressive and used by people doing much more extreme off roading. Generally speaking you will get more wear out of an A/T and it will be quieter on road than a M/T. The MPG may also be slightly better.

          As ever tyres are a matter of personal choice, good A/T's like BFG cope very well in extreme conditions (I've run them on my truck all winter on some pretty extreme sites), and the pricier M/T's will run quietly and well on road (as Koi's BFG M/T's prove), but if you are on a limited budget and dont have plans to do any very extreme off roading I'd suggest Kumho A/T's.

            and those in the pic are 15"... although i didn't read the post and probably completely missed what it's all about!

            p.s i got colway ctrax on and they've been good... had them since january and haven't had any trouble on or off road and they go for about £40 each from 4x4 accessories and tyres, who also do wheel and tyre combination packages quite cheap so may be worth a try?

              The spare is a 15" but the rest of the wheels are 16",so I need another 16" alloy/steel to replace the 15" alloy spare (Hope that make sense)

              Thanks for replys will try a few of them see if they have any in stock

              So does anyone know the measurement from floor to sill ???
