Very good tyre. No road noise IMHO. Very good in mud and on roads

I think I have done 25,000 and they have about 3mm left on them. But I do drive very enthusiastically |

i've had them on over 12 mths too, only a very slight increase in road noise, really nothing to worry about and no issues whatsoever with handling or fuel consumption, they must disperse water alot better than the conti's i had on because the FL2 feels more planted when hitting standing water.

Would I be correct in assuming they start with a lot of tread depth too? Maybe more than normal tyres? |

Thanks guys. Just fitted them and you're right about no noticeable change in noise or handling. |

As a further update....I've just driven about 60 miles on a mixture of motorway, A road and country roads and the Grabber ATs are, on some surfaces, even quieter than my previous tyres and the car does feel a little more stable if anything. I'd recommend them to anyone thinking of changing tyres! |

I planned on fitting some Grabber AT's last Nov but I couldn't get hold of them anywhere so had to settle for Cooper Discovery ATR's.
