Grabber at2's on mine and I can't fault them. If you read some us write ups they out point bfg's. They out price them to. Put a set on rich's doka and he's happy with them.

Re: Best 16" AT tyre?
Yokohama Geolandar AT/S both on the T3 (215-65-16) and on the T4 (225-70-15). Like them a lot. They have sufficient traction to go offroad occasionally (are rated 60% street / 40% offroad) but are hardly louder on the road than street tyres are. Also look nice. Wouln't recommend them if you plan to be offroad most of the time though.
Cheers, André

Re: Best 16" AT tyre?
I have HANKOOK RF10 DYNAPRO ATM HANKOOK RF 10 - 225/75R16 106T TL on mine. About £70 a corner but every bit as good as the BFGs at £107 a corner. Will buy them again. Got them from http://www.camskill.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Don't let the name put you off a lot of good reviews on these tyres. They do them in 205/80. 16" as well.

It's an Audi 4x4 rack. Want it. £40 that's what I paid for it. Never used which is why I am selling it have a trailer as well which is why the rack isn't used.

Yes. At2's on my garage pic. 255/65/16. I run kumho kl71's on my other 4x4. Their a good tyre as mt's go again the reviews will speak for themselves. If you are going one tyre type only at's are the way to go. I couldn't live with a mt buzz on long holiday hauls.
