Thanks for that Eric
I think they will be the way ahead when the time comes- the Duratracks are proving impossible to track down in the right size!

Know its dragging it up a bit but I got my Winter tyres for the Disco from TYRELEADER they are based in Germany and sell loads of tyres with free shipping and normally have them within a week.
I went for Cooper Discover M+S 2 on the Disco and they wiped the floor compared to the GG ATs that are the summer tyres. Used them in Scotland in Feb / March this year and did over 20 miles at a time in diff deep snow with no issue and deeper stuff with no issues but not so much miles. Looking at possibly getting the older Cooper Discover M+S for the Fender which is 235/85/16 http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres-235-85-16/?s=W |

Its on hold at the moment as I have other kettles on the boil but I'm hoping to have my BFG's off this weekend at which point I will offer them up for grabs Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197 Self confessed mileage hunter |

Wet weather and winter grip is better with General AT2 than BFG AT KO judging by my customers feedback.
BFG will maybe outlast General by a small margin but safety first IMHO. Whatever tyre you decide to go for we will be happy to quote on a fully fitted and balanced price, just call. Andy. www.ajstyres.co.uk 01737 241370 Junction 8 M25 Surrey. |
