I would appreciate your comments on the above.while we still have a few klms left in our Coopers Discovery ATR Tyres fitted to our Toyota 100 series Landcruiser ( they were on it when we bought it) I have started to think about replacements. The majority of our travels will be on the black with the occasional dirt road route towing our 2200 kg Roadstar van.
I recognize this topic has many and varied opinions but I am not fully conversant with the pro's and con's of the many types and manufacture available. Therefore I would appreciate your comments on the topic to help us make the right decision. Cost is a factor but if the right tyre costs a bit more then it's worth the money. Thanking you in advance for your advice.

Hi Briche.
We have BF Goodrich A/t KO light truck on the Patrol and have had a good run with 85,000klms so far and a possible 10,000 still to go, mostly bitumen with occasional dirt.
50,000klm have been with towing the van; I have only rotated the 4 tyres every 12 months.
I would certainly use them again. The original Bridgestone tyres travelled 50,000 with very little van towing.
Regards Jim

Currently have GT Radial Savero A/T Plus fitted to my Pathfinder If the sales talk is anywhere near true I'm expecting better that 600000 out of them. At $240 ea and with the nearest coming in over $300 I'll give them ago
