But what are the 16" boys running?
Trying to gather a bit of data covering the spectrum of tyres sizes we run..

215 75 15 BFG ATs on these Audi rims from early 90s Audi 100 / 200.

Before anyone comments - I have longer studs on now. Its turned out that the vendor had some weird ideas about what constituted a "fully restored" Syncro - but hey, we live and learn.
To get back on topic, I've been impressed with the BFG ATs. When the VC failed open in the Picos we still managed to get just about everywhere that the others did just using the rear locker.

Thinking about the AT2s in this size, for our van, but a lot of places don't stock them that size. Where did you get yours from?
