Tyre advice.

Hey peeps got a bit of a dilema on tyres,

Went to get a price for a set of Hankook Dynapro ATs but they dont do them in my size 265/75/16 They only do them in MTs,

Now if im going MTs ive always thought about going MAXXIS BUCKSHOTS (MTs)

Now here is the problem,

A- Go for the Dynapro MTs even thou i have no reviews of them on Landys and they are £110 each

B- Go for the Maxxis Buckshot (MT) which i have ran on smaller vehicles before no problem and cost about £90

C - Try and get a good cheap set of 15" rims so i can get AT's but then i would need 31 x10.5 to keep the RR correct ???

D- Open to Ideas

These will be on a 90 Hard top at the mo more road but that might change to 50/50

For that money, and ATs, why not open up to different tires - the new General Grabber AT is about £110 and a cracking good tire.

I will admit ima bit of a tyre Whore and the Grabbers just aint doing it for me unfortulantly.

Go for the Dynapro MTs or General Grabber AT2

thats expensive for The Dynapro mts. Also they arent that good as a MT, they are more a AT tire anyway. Good enough on and off road but the maxxis will probbaly be better in the mud.The Hankooks i had were great in the snow too if that helps at all.

You sure about that?? The dynapro mts i saw had a similar tread to buckshots... Sounds like maxxis it is the

Just got a set of the General Grabbers AT's on mine they were £110 nice tyre car feels so much better this is on a Disco 2


255/65 /16

I have Buckshots in 285/75 r16s. Fantastic tyre but quite bouncy. I don't think they make them anymore do they because of the noise.

Without a doubt, sure. Owned a set me self

My bucksots are the same as the original bfg mud terrains.

Cheers for the replys peeps. sorry for doubting you goonarmy just going from memory.

Ive heard about a lot of tyres going obsolete with the new EU noise regs, Guess its a chance if i can get 5 then i will have to hope i dont get a puncture lol.

the rt03s are very quiet, no more nosiey than me ol Ats or road tires on the rangie, although the v8 noise did dominate.

I've not noticed any noise from the Grabbers
