I'm sure this has been covered many times but I've had a search with little success so sorry for bringing up what is probably an old chestnut. :)

Need some tyres for the Disco to do some off roading but not compromise road use too much. It is currently on 205 80 R16s - any recommendations for that size? Only option I've found so far are some Avon all-terrain. Alternatively, would it be better to get some spare (bigger?) rims and put some more dedicated off road tyres on those? (But not too big as I don't fancy modding the bodywork.....just yet :))

Many thanks.
 
:doh: Thanks for the link. I did take a quick look at that before I posted but I was more after what makes/model of tyre are good for which use. There seems to be very little choice for my current tyre size. Just wondered if I was overlooking some 205 80 16 options. Would rather stay with the size I have if I can but if those Avons are the extend of the choice I have then I guess I have to size up.
