I have owned many, many sets of BFG all terrains, and as an all round tyre they cannot be beat. They have a three ply side wall which makes them less susceptible to side wall punctures - especially when running at low pressures.
For the Patrol I recommend 285/75/16 - G-Man is running this same tyre.
Give me a call if you want some help - 050 8116007.
cheers,
Geoff

I would go along the same route as Geoff suggested, the BFGoodrich AT is a fantastic tyre both on and off road. Not too noisy on road and lasts forever in my experience...lucknow wrote:I have owned many, many sets of BFG all terrains, and as an all round tyre they cannot be beat.

Kalemero, 285s should fit fine on your car... It has a lift kit on it. Whats the size of your wheels? 15 or 16 and what width are they, 8.5?
I'm very happy with my BFGs AT KO.
With the 285s, you'll get more articulation from your suspension.
whatever tires you buy keep your receipt and all the stickers from the tires. Just in case there is a recall.

ok i have tried different tires.
BF goodrich are very good in the street but really bad in the sand.
the kumho are noisy in the street but good in the sand (although they are heavy)
Now i'm using the BF goodrich a/t and i want to sell them and buy me a real tire , hmmmmm might get the cooper.
i would love to get the BF goodrich M/T its amazing but not available here.
