That is the problem - so far it is only the makers saying they are better - I have not as yet seen any independent reports on whether they are in fact better or it is just marketing hype - they certainly look less aggressive than the AT2.

You wont thats why they are not making the AT2 any more..

A little while back, the Pirelli ATR won one of the magazine's AT tyre shoot-out, against some visually far more aggressive-looking tyres. So there's some truth to the claim that it's not just looks that determine the ability.

my wife tells me that Gordon.

When I ordered my D4 from ULR they offered AT tyres as I had said the vehicle would be used for its designated purpose. Vehicle is now ready for delivery and they (ULR) asked last week what tyres I'd like (cool!). So I mentioned both the Pirelli ATR and GG AT as both being well regarded on this forum. They said they'd look into it and today they said they'd fit the GG's as the Pirellis were a tad exxy for them to 'throw in'. So I'm Really looking forwards to Saturday.
Know where I can get some spray-on mud for the drive back down Malvern Road?

Replaced my Wranglers with the Grabber ATs today (and great service from the team at Tyrepower Camberwell ). Agree with ~Rich~ ... they certainly look better on the D4 in real-life than in the promo pix. Off to the Vic high-country this weekend, and keen to see how they perform.
