Recommendations Please

Need some new boots for swmbos FL2

Now I fancy some Goodyear Duratracs like I have on my D3, cannot fault them 15-20k miles and little wear but not too sure what size is compatable with the 235/65R17 that are fitted, any help appreciated Thumbs Up

Other tyres looking at are the Yokohama Geolander go12 or go15

Don't fancy the GG AT due to me having some on my D3, lasted a year before I got rid did not like them. Likewise with cooper tyres heard few horror stories from the Disco3 site about tread peeling off etc which is a shame as the Cooper AT3 looking a good tyre.

Last but not least the good old Pirelli ATR got over 40k on my D3 running them, this is my back up choice but prefer the Duratracs if I can get a compatible size.

Mix of road, grass, gravel and some mud so don't fancy road bias tyre. Freelander 2 Swmbos

Nokian Weatherproof?
Surprisingly good grip on tarmac. I haven't used them in lots of mud but they did very well on dirt in France and Spain. MY13 Santorini Black SD4 HSE

I noticed at the weekend that my Weatherproofs are marked with a snow flake, so these might make a very good all seasons option.
