Thanks for the reply npinks. Cooper UK site shows 235/65 17 in their info pdf file (http://www.coopertire.co.uk/sites/default/files/DiscoATR_technical.pdf). Last time I enquired locally they were on back order but that was a while ago. Anyone else have any actual experience of either of these tyres? |

You may also want to look at Toyo Open Country A/T. They are great in winter too.

Then choose one that have aligned longitudinal (around circumference) grooves and/or one or more broad straight around circumference groove to help lateral stability.

I have fitted some 235/70/16 Goodyear Wrangler AT/SA's "all terrain/Silent armour" to a spare set of 16" 'S' rims and have been very surprised at just how quiet and smooth these are on the road. Less noisy than the standard Scorpions and no noticeable rumble through the steering even at 80. So far, I have not seen the reduced MPG I was expecting due to the blocky tread, nor any extra roll when cornering "probably due to the reinforced sidewalls".

Thanks Wing for the info on the Wrangler AT/SA. I have a pdf from their site that gives the data/theory but I think first hand comments are worth far more -
