I take it the rumours of a 19" AT2 being produced are indeed still rumours at this stage? Thought it might be worth getting some part worn Scorpions off ebay to give me a few thousand miles more until the AT2's are released. D3 TDV6 HSE 2008 Buckingham Blue (current)

Andy, Me or wife will call on Monday to purchase the latitudes got our money back from costco and found somebody to fit them locally. From speaking to michelin the difference between synco's v latitude is the syncro's were 80 road 20 offroad but latitude are 90 road , 10 offroad. IMHO I would not use any of them offroad (by offroad I mean more than a gravel track or field) as the sidewalls seem to get damaged. I brought some 17" wheels off ebay and a set of cooper STT's for when offroad calls.

I heard from the guys who had the big 4X4 tyre stand at the CLA Game Fair (can't remember who the company was) that it was true, but they didn't have any dates. Got the impression it was going to be 2009 sometime.
They liked the Pirelli ATR, but hadn't tried them on a D3.

Ahh well. I'll just have to keep my Scorpions going until then. They're new so I hope they will give me another 6+ months, although the way folks moan about their longevity on here, it could be touch and go! I must admit I find them to be superb for grip and handling on road, and for the minor green laning I've done since I had this car they've been ok too, but I haven't really tested them properly off road yet. The ones I took off though before the new ones I have now were absolutely shredded. Besides the treads being bald, the sidewalls were ripped to bits with gauges and slits all over the place. That's as it was when I got it though, so I guess that could be as a result of misuse. D3 TDV6 HSE 2008 Buckingham Blue (current)

Any news on 19" grabbers yet Andy? (or anyone else who knows) Alternatively, are there any other new releases available now for the 19" that are 50/50 decent for farm use D3 TDV6 HSE 2008 Buckingham Blue (current)

Well we are still waiting, there is a meeting on 15th of this month so maybe some news then, also being discussed is a selection of General MT tyres.
But as KEN says, Pirelli ATR is a good tyre and the only real option at present, very costly though.
