If yer going off the tarmac, go for 215/80/15 ATs which will give you about an inch lift - i've stuck a set of toyo 785 all terrains on and they are good on and off road.

I've just ordered (expecting today) 5 x Hankook ATM 205/80R16's. At £49 each @ CamSkill, and the glowing (albeit American) reviews of them, I thought they were a bargain! I'll let you know if the hype lives up to the reality.

I've the same size (now) on my FL, i've put some Falken AT's which are just brilliant.

I've some Toyo Tranpaths MT's/Mich Sychrones for sale though in the 195-80 r15's??

Can confirm that the tyres are excellent quality, balanced up perfectly and are almost silent on the road! Not had a chance to try them off-road yet, but in the rain tonight, they provided excellent grip. Definitely a bargain IMHO.
