Try Kumho KL71, actually an MT but very good road manners and great VFM...

Thanks

Falkens seemed pretty cheap with full set around £250 unfitted.

Will look at the others.

Thanks

Just been looking at these myself. You really rate these tyres then with road manners?

Very much so, I've done about 20k on my current set, they're grippy and amazingly quiet for such an agressive tread pattern. Being directional helps.

I've always used BFG AT's or MT's in the past (on various Land Rovers, Jeeps and Jap 4x4's) but I can't say I'll ever go back.

Thanks for that then lefty, looks like I'l give them a try instead of the BFG all terrains.
