I tried the BFG Ko2's 265/75/16 and found them a little slippery in the wet for my taste. I've now got Cooper Discoverer AT3 4s 265/75/16. Which is a more road focused AT tyre.They are a great in the wet and on snow. They are also very quiet, smooth and comfortable on the road while still having off road capability. I would definitly recommend them for your use. I hope this helps.

I have Falken Wildpeak A/t3 on my 110 and they have been great in the wet

I think im going to swap my ko2's for these very soon. My ko2's are sketchy braking on a wet road.

Just to add to your confusion/choices;
A couple of weeks ago I fitted a set of 'Davanti Terratoura a/t - 265/75 r16' and I've found them to be excellent ( so far).
They're good on wet/slushy roads and also the light off road use they've had.

And they're relatively cheap 👍👍👍

I fitted these to my daughter's 90 300 tdi when she got it about three years ago. It being her first car she has no experience of anything else. This year she coped with snow, frozen roads and floods. She has a horse box which she tows so goes into the muddy stuff. She is very happy with these tyres. They are marked with the snow flake symbol.
Personally our two 110 2.4 Pumas are shod with Michelin Latitude Cross 235/85/16 and they are very quiet, comfortable and good in the wet. Will cope with modest off roading. 1982 88" 2.25 diesel

2008 110 2.4 tdci csw-Zulu
2011 110 2.4 tdci csw-Masai
