Jason,

All really depends what you want to do.

There are standard road tyres, Semi off road tyres (ATR) and full off road tyres (MTR).

Depending where you are, AJS Tyres and 'Ken' (username) are based around London are are deemed to be cheaper than the rest

Take a look here in the wiki. http://www.disco3.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Wheels_and_Tyres

Any other questions please ask

Jason,

I've just gone from road tyres to ATR's. These are great on and off road and should do me for 40,000miles.....

Perelli's mate.

For prices best PM 'Ken' or AJS Tyres'

Where are you based?

Wrangler very good, better wear and off road than the Scorpion IMHO.

AT2's are also a good option, but not as grippy on road and pretty good off. Side walls are said to be prone to damage but it really depends on what kind of off road you mean.

Lots of tread so potentially long lasting.

ATR's seem to be the new favourite AT tyre though...
