How long is a piece of string?

If I had the choice right now, I'd be fitting the new Pirelli AT plus to my D4 (enhanced replacement for the pretty good ATRs I happily had on my D2).
But if you get any responses, there will be as many different options, even for just on road use. If I recall Dunlop AT20 were original equipment?

Bridgestone HT 265/60/18 , no reason other than I got them new for $100 each.

Round ones. I’m a clear fan of round. I tried square once because they were going cheap. I tell you what, they saw me coming. Never again.

I was at city tyres and a bloke pulled up in a new Ranger and wanted ATs put on it , told him I would give him 500 for the 5 HTs he was taking off. Feb this year.

+1 for round ones for me, prefer black ones [tonguewink] and one on each corner helps too.

Ive got a set of Pirelli Scorpian AT Plus tyres on my 2015 Discovery (D4) - I love them!

Quiet and very sure-footed, even in a tropical downpour, and while I don’t why, the vehicle feels lighter in the steering than it did with the Scorpians ATRs they replaced.

I got 80,000 kms out of the ATRs - I think the AT Pluses will crack the 100,000 km.
