215/65/16 for my freelander.

Need to replace all four. Want as low a road noise tyre that can also do snow. Mud and rock skillz not needed.

Any ideas people?

Goodyear Wranglers work well on MrsM's Navara - no idea if they are available in your size

We use BF goodrich allterrain at work and handled the snow brilliantly. We tried Goodyears but everyone complained they didn't last 5 minutes.

I got some Yokohama geolanders put on my x-trail a few months ago. They seem really good and were about £105 per tyre through mytyres.co.uk (plus some quidco).

BTW I think the Goodyear allterrains they put on are what they put on Freelanders, and even our transport department were baffled that they were called a allterrain tyre as they were completely crap off road.

cheers - just phoning round local fitters now.

looks like about £82 + VAT a corner so not too pricey really.

Grabbers. Got TRs on the Land but AT2s should be better on the road.

BF Goodrich AT's are excellent and expensive but sadly not made for my TD5 so I went for the Grabber AT2 which are pretty good and cheap.

felt really good on the way back from the garage.

Bit noisier on the road but that's to be expected.
Should help keep me black-side down this winter anyway.

Stoner - I'm being slightly blind - which ones are they?

Got new Grabber TRs on the Landy 110 and they are pretty chunky.
