Best value road tyres?

[Sandoise]

I need new tyres for my 2009 D4 3.0 DTV6 and have read so many general pro's and con's about budget v premium and other aspects of tyres, that I'm feeling groggy.
I drive 95% on bitumen, and 5% on all sorts of quite testing off-road terrain, but I'm not in it for the macho and try to avoid "serious" off-road.
Does the forum have suggestions for good, quiet, safe road tyres which can handle some off-road, please?

What size rims do you have? I suspect 19".

Have a look at Toyo Open Country H/T 255/55/19 111V.
I have fitted them and did a 1000km round trip to Sydney and found them smooth, comfortable and above all very quiet. They also appear to be a very solid tyre.

Supposed to be really good.

Disco4se do they come in a 19"?

[Sandoise]

they are currently 255/55R19

... And they are 111V whatever that means. I checked the web address and I can only see Toyo Open Country HT 255/55-19 with 103S (whatever that means. And they are $510 each at that site. Sounds expensive but I've never replaced these tyres before.
thanks for advice so far.

111 is the load rating, you need a minimum of 109
V is the speed rating

See here for more info.

There are a few tyres that are suitable:

Pirelli Scorpion ATR

Pirelli Scorpion Zero

Cooper Zeon LTZ

General Grabber AT

Hankook Dynapro

I have used links to eBay as they were the easiest to search they may or may not be the cheapest.

As far as I know there are no LT (light truck) tyres in 19".

All of the above have had good reports.

My BMW X5 has 19 X 10's on the rear and 19 X 9's on the front. I buy from Tempe Tyres in Sydney. I get a full set of 285 x 35 x 19 rears and 245 x 45 x 19 fronts (I think the numbers are right) delivered to my door for under $800. They may be what they call "grey imports" but they fulfil all my needs of tyres. They are black, round and keep my rims off the ground.
I have been getting 60,000 + from the fronts and about 40,000 from the rears.
I must state the usual disclaimer here that I have no shares in Tempe Tyres nor am I having a relationship with the tyre fitter's daughter.

Personally I quite like the oem wranglers (laughing to a minimum please). Having had Wranglers, GG ATs and Pirelli Scorpions I've gone back to Wranglers (at the right price) and am reasonably happy with them.
