Does anyone know what's going on with General Tyres in the UK. I'm after a set of AT2's for my Disco, yet apart from a few odd sizes no-one seems to have any in stock and can't shed any light on when they might have some? Have they withdrawn AT2's?

They did the same thing about four years ago, just stopped production of them, then after a break did another run, it is possible At3 is a replacement, looks a good tyre , imo

I think that was about the time the EU forced them to withdraw them because they hadn't passed the road noise tests.

Lots of suppliers sites still list them for purchase with a price but then say Out of stock when you actually go to order them.

This is correct. They didn't pass the regs so had to stop selling them. They then came out with a revised design a bit later on that passed.
