Really like General Grabber, not had the AT3,s though.

And I think there boots not shoes. Common sense isn't very common.

they said 50:50 on the website...shoeish boot then...
Quite happy with them on ice climbing up a slope last Saturday.
Not bad at all.
Comfort wise not as good as the 18" Pirelli, quite bumpy on the road. Freelander 2 XS MY 2012, 19" rims, Barolo Black. Privacy glass, spoiler.

Looking good. Have you had At or AT2 before? How do they compare? (Suppose too early to tell really!)

I had AT2 on my FL1 and AT on my FL2..... The AT2 was a very blocky tread design (like the BFG AT), while the AT was more chunky road style almost

IMO the AT was not as good a 50/50 tyre as the AT2 (I drove on both when greenlining and in the snow) and the AT3 looks likes it gone back to the blocky design, so hopefully would be as good as the AT2.

Out the AT2 I got 50k miles with maybe 4/5mm left, and the AT 25k before I sold the car but still with 7mm on them

I really like General boots and I will be looking for some of their road tyres for my Ewok when the time comes

I share your love for gg tyres I've had AT2, now on ATs and our VW Tiguan is running on GTs now. Can't fault their tyres and won't be looking anywhere else when time comes for replacement.

2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Stornoway Grey

Hi, currently have ATs on mine. I find them quite noisy but they are down to 5-6mm.

Are the AT3s quiet/quieter as I would like to change to them for next winter.

They look a bit aggressive. How's their noise on the highway?
