BF Goodrich AT Tyres - TD-5

No doubt this has been covered before but I’ve done a search and didn’t have any luck.

I’ve always ran my 300TDI on GoodrichAT’s and now the time has come to upgrade the tyres on my 03 TD-5. I’ve been around some of the main tyre dealers getting quotations and I swear when they see a big 4x4 pull up they instantly throw-out any chance of discount, thinking because we run a 4x4 we can afford to pay top dollar on tyres!

My latest quote today was £158 per corner from ATS.
Two questions…

1. What’s the most common / recommended size to run on a 16” TD-5?
2. What’s the average price on these most excellent tyres?

Cheers,

John.

Any reason why BFG,s AT,s are always in short supply mate ?.

We don't sell many at our depot, but suppliers say there a very popular tyres. I've got 4 on my disco, only 6 month old and there great. I think michelin own bfg now I heard, I've got 1 supplier to ring 2moro which I didn't try today. So every1 tell me what size u want

Also company I work for have depots in Sheffield, worksop, gainsbrough, Lincoln, market rasen, and some somewhere else. I can order tyres for people and send them on our delivery van to any depot. Can sort out good discounts 2
