As the Poll suggests, the time has come to choose a new set of rubber to be fitted to my steel wheels for the Gen.4. I plan to utilise this set up all year round, I do pretty high mileage so 'bang for buck' has been a large factor in rounding up this selection so far.
This group of tyres were selected based on price, performance, availability. (Appreciate there are other great tyres out there available, this list has been tailored to my own specific requirements and also local availability). I'd really appreciate your guys expertise to help me make a selection out of the list below!
Prices:
BFG K02 - 215/75/15 - £125 per corner (fitted).
Goodyear Wrangler A/T's - 205/75/15 - £95 per corner (fitted)
Continental ATR's - 215/75/15 - £87 per corner (fitted)
Hankook Dynapro ATM RF10 - 195/80/15 - £75 per corner (fitted)
I can't comment on any of those on your shortlist as I only have experience of the stock Duellers and currently on Yokohama Geolanders in stock size. Just want to ask though are any on your list Winter/All Season tyres?

I believe the Continentals and BFG's both carry the '3 peak' snow rated symbol. I believe the others are classed as dedicated summer tyres.
Depends what you want from the tyres. The BFG’s are the most off roady. The rest are high road biased.
If your aren’t going off road. Then the BFG’s would be somewhat pointless. If you are. Then the others could potentially be lacking.
For myself I narrowed it down to the BFG’s and the Maxxis Wormdrive which is very similar. As I do off road. Went with the BFG’s as they were considerably cheaper and I’ve had good experience with Maxxis in the past.
I might be bias but if it has bfg on the side it's going to be brilliant.
