Wrangler Duratrac 255/55 R19
Just got my D4 fitted with Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac in 255/55R 19.
It looks like a really great tyre. Pretty quiet too so far.

As far as price goes they are cheaper than Grabber AT's here in South Africa.
I had a D3 until very recently and paid very similar money for BFG all terrains in 18".

Carriage is £2.99 per tyre and you still have to pay to get them fitted, so c.£200 all in.

My indie tyre dealer in Bristol couldn't get any a couple of weeks ago.
As I might be driving the D3 in Europe this winter, I had a quick look on a couple of French & German tyre websites, they weren't even listed.

I've edited my above post.
Fully inc. price from Camskill is going to be around £200 per tyre as you need to add £2.99 carriage and then pay to get them fitted.
But I can't recall Goodyear 4X4 tyres being anything other than at the top end of the pricing scale. Supply of the old MTR's was often an issue as well iirc.

It's a Goodyear thang. Pirelli wouldn't dare do that, much!!
