How about some discoverer S/T copper's 205/80/16

The Discoverer S/T is Cooper"s premium all-purpose SUV/light truck traction tire that is a hybrid of three designs � all-terrain, high void and commercial traction. The Discoverer S/T fits a wide range of SUVs and light trucks up to 1 ton, but it is especially suitable for high-powered, high-torque light trucks where optimum wear and traction are required.

Sorry for hi jacking your thread but didn't want to start another one at the rath of markyp2000 lol. Im looking to get some AT tyres around Christmas and was wondering if anyone has ever used general grabber AT's? We have them on the hilux at work but never been over impressed when the ground gets a bit wetter.

These coopers are on the Landrover at work & they are very noisy on the road & I think very bad in mud compared to my Jimny on Grabber AT2's
