I really liked the look of the ATR's, but apparently they're not M&S or 3 Peaks? Is that right? Different tyre sellers tell you different things...

M&S from memory it's M&S (it's +1.7c outside so not keen on going out) but not 3 peaks. Used mine for Highland winters since 2012 and had no problem, as long as I drove to the conditions then no problems.

I've also noticed 2 different speed ratings, T and H. Mainly T's available. Is this a newer version (with several manufacturers lowering their ratings recently (cheaper to conform?))?

Yes, T replaced H rating, forgot about that. Got a letter from my insurer (NFU) that this wasn't a problem but have a full set of new H rated ATRs ready to go in once worn set is finished.

Cheers DSL.
Any ideas of a decent price for H's? I can get T's delivered for £114 each, then pay £20 fitting per corner ( ), but wondered if I can get H's for similar?!

Mine have M+S marking, but no 3 peaks.
They don't have the snipes normally found on winter tyres.
But they did okay in the snow for me.

I don't think you can get H ATRs unless old stock. My last 2 came from Italy at £78 each but that was clearance.

Oponeo have H rated ATR's in stock a few minutes ago.

Not sure why but could only find T rated on oponeo. Might be worth checking with your insurer to see if they are happy with those.

PS Penny has dropped, we're looking at different sizes.

DSL, this is because H are only in 19" now, in 18" are T from time to here...lost in translation!

I've found at least two companies selling 18" H's. Are they likely to be tyres that've been stored, then?
