    I suspect your link to the General website shows a new off road tyre rather than a new AT


    I thought they were two different treads.
    If its not broke don't fix it.

        Aye, hold on, I see your point, a link posted in haste... Anyway, the AT's on the RT website are what I have fitted to mine.
        As for the AT2's, they seem to be completely unavailable. Perhaps Barry a RT could enlighten us as to what's what.

          I'm looking to get a new set of tyres. R15's no body lift etc. Any reccommendations as to size/type? Not made of money so obviously as reasonably priced as poss.

            I've got Nexen A/Ts on the truck at the mo. Not what would've been my first choice but they were the budget option at my local tyre place and I needed them sorting asap and, as usual, I was a bit short of cash.

            In terms of size they're 265/70/15.

            Turns out that they're serving me pretty well. Adequate for minor off-roading (did get stuck at Sibbertoft last summer but so did a few other people with much more capable looking 4x4s in the same place). Can't really fault them on-road and they've been good in the snow too.

            Almost got stuck doing some local green laning a couple of weeks ago but that was as much to do with some local scrotes building a barricade across it. Not easy to do a 3 point turn in a space not much wider than the truck and fairly muddy...!



            I'll almost certainly be going for 33 12.5 15 GG ATs when they need replacing.

            The guy seems to have a reasonable reputation and I'm pretty certain a few folks on here have bought tyres from him in the past too.

                AT2's in mud? No thanks.

                Self cleaning?

                Nope.



                Mud wasn't even deep, but when they had filled up, the only thing pushing me forward was the the LSD...

                  I've got a set of BF Goodrich All Terrain's on mine, fecking expensive but I got 70000 miles on the set that came with the truck and they were no where near new then! Got stuck in a few bogs with the old worn set but never got a puncture, even after all trips to the scrap yards and that. There decent on the road as well, just hard on the wallet! was baked beans for tea for a few months!

                      @John
                      Might be worth dropping the tyre pressures to mid or low twenties when off in the mud.

                        I've had to buy 2 tyres for mine as two were shot, wasnt sure what to go for but got a pair of Lassa Competus' and stuck them on the back. Apparently Lassa is a sister company to Bridgestone? Anyway i got Bridgestone dueller's on the front which appear to be a road tyre. Went on a soft field today and the Lassa's seemed fairly good for the money @ £70 a tyre so happy with that.

                            General Grabber UHPs. I'm never off-road so they're fine for what I need (tarmac roads) and have proved to be good in the snow, too.
