Looking at buying a set of 5 of the Goodrich AT tyres, but anyone with any contacts or where to buy these at sensible prices. I`ve had a set of cheap remoulds with this pattern but now need to replace them after 50K km on them.
Any suggestions?

I don't think £80 inc vat is too bad for a BFG, though it might be worth contacting a local tyre surplyer thats listed as a BFG dealer. dealer list from their website
For some resion the postcode surch doesn't seem to work properly so you need to pick through it manually or get your web browser to pick out a relavant postcode.
I found when looking for my 14" AT's, a dealer local to me (AP Tyres, Rotheram) gave a better than web deal streight off and obveously they fitted them too so I ended up paying £85 per fitted and balanced tyre with vat and desposal fees of old rubber. Some dealers wanted over £100 ex vat just for a tyre! If your looking for a common size (yours should be popular with Suzuki SJ owners I think, too small for landrover specalists though) you might be able to find someone doing a deal, if they are common enough a mainstream chain might be able to help.
First decent tyre I've fitted to one of my vehicles, I'm used to remolds. You can see where the quality comes from - less road noise and lighter steering. Definately worth it. Getting 50Mm from cheep patern tyres sounds about the norm, but from what I've herd from Land Rover owners BFGs will easilly give over 100Mm normally and if your lucky they've been known to get up to 160Mm, thats 100k miles!
