    Tim - where did you get them from. When I have priced them Jax at Fyshwick were giving good pricing.

    Also it looks as if you went for the older AT2 rather than the newer AT - any particular reason?

    Do they not come in 265/60/18??
    What price?

    my local quotes are -
    Cooper AT3 $405
    Mickey Thompson STZ $420
    Yokohama ATS $415
    all being for the 265/60/18. as I run now.

    For the highway pattern Falkens I pay $305.

    I was under the impression that these were the new tyre? got them from Dickson tyres as they are a contenential agent, stuck with the 255/60/18 as this is the standard size and couldnt get any info on a wider tyre and isssues with size/rubbing. Paid $275 each which was comparible with all of the jax outlets

    That is the price that tends to be quoted.

    Here is a thread on the ATs - http://www.aulro.com/afvb/d3-d4-rrs/...l-grabber.html

    The AT2 though gets a good write up though.

    265/60/18 is the tyre size that will achieve the closest to the standard rolling diameter designed for the L322.

    I've been running 265/60/18 for years on my truck (L322) and there is no issue with "rubbing" etc.

    The speedo shows a more accurate reading with 265/60/18 than with 255/60/18.

    L322 tyres

    255/60/18 General Grabber AT & General Grabber AT2 are both available

    AT is a tamer less aggressive tread pattern - see attached pics - I'd include as thumbnails if I knew how to.

    - my local JAX dealer is quoting $260 fitted & balanced

    I decided to go for the AT2 because it was still an all terrain and guys that I had spoken to had a great run out west with them, and I also didn't want to put a set of muddies on the rangie, that's what my 130 puma with Mickey thompson mtz are for!
