I'm going to order 4 AT's today. Can anyone clear up the rating issue I have? I know its on a seperate thread on here but this thread is from people who have bought the AT Door pillar in car says 104H/108V for the 235/65/17. Gen Grabber AT is 108H. Do I need to inform my insurance company or is the tyre fine for the Freelander? Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

"H" rating is 130mph and is no problem IMHO, if you are worried talk to your insurance company, we have not had any customers with any insurance problems. Load rating is fine. Andy.

You're only wasting yours and their time if ALL insurance companies are not bothered, while there are some that are then until you know who they are it still pays to check.

Load rating is the most important part of it.

After much thought I've gone for UHP's as I do hardly any off roading. My wife gets a discount through her work so local tyre fitter will fit them Friday. Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

Spoke to my insurance company (L+V) about H rating tyres. They said that as the size of the tyre wasnt changing then the change of rating is not an issue with themselves and WILL NOT affect the policy. I dont know if thats the same with other insurance companies or not. I will now be ordering some AT's probably from Black Circle now as a garage close to my work place can fit them.

Just got 4 AT's fitted. My wranglers were down to just under 3mm after 34000 miles. I must say first impressions are that the AT's are quieter, I will see how they sound when they are run in. Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

I'm looking to replace my tyres soon. I contacted General about Christmas time regarding the AT2 in 235 60 R18 and this is the reply:
