    The voids seem to be about mid-way between the KO2 and the ATR but also with has full depth voids like the KO2 and unlike the ATR in both 255/55R19 and 275/55R20. Obviously you haven't had any aquaplaning issues but IIRC (its been quite a while!) your tyres have quite an open tread compared with the 255/55R19 version.

    No aquaplaning so far.... famous last words hopefully not! I remember also yours looked like they were also not as deep in the tread. For the same tyre, we had very different tyres, I was quite surprised..

    The LTs are a quite a bit different to the P rated in my experience. Tread pattern was similar but the LT was chunkier.

    Yes, Simon, I was thinking that your's were LT285/?? and you have reminded me of the comparison conversation.

    The temptation of current availability and a comparatively good price from my local workshop was too great to resist so a set of 275/55R20 has been ordered. They'll be stored out of sunlight for a few months whilst the BFGs are run down, noting that 1 BFG on the rear is a little out of round so perhaps wont last a lot longer.

    Anyone running the Plus’s on 19’s at this stage? Interested in any feedback as tyre replacement time is coming up.

    I can find out the local farmer's initial reaction to the 19s fitted to his Amarok very recently but it won't provide any insight to their robustness unless he's destroyed one already.

    Thanks Graeme. Just if you’re talking to him. Our Dutatracs are in their final quarter.

    I was about to go for the Maxxis until I realised that the new scorpion plus’s were in existence. We tow a van so the greater load rating of the maxxis is attractive. However not keen on adding too much road noise to the equation.

    Duratracs have been fine however the front ones do chip quite a lot. We do a mixture of bitumen, dirt and track and the van is quite heavy so maybe the chipping is understandable.

    I wish BFG’s were availablevin 19’s.
