hey dave, had mine on for a month or so now, only thing i've noticed is that i keep driving over things....
oh and i did get stuck too.. great fun...
mpg is crap whatever so don't even look at that anymore..one wife.......livid
Would suggest changing to K & N which is good for the life of the vehicle and let the engine breath much easier. Reggie B fitted one after I bullied him into it at Eastnor and is now getting over 30 on a decent drive.
K & N in mine also and around town with AT2's still getting better than 25-27 on long trips and getting to work daily M 25 / A3 still getting around 30mpg......FORECAST FOR TONIGHT: things have happened out there!!!
The countryside is still OURS!!

As promised I can now report back that my new AT'2 show no discernable reduction in mpg.
I did my usual 80 mile mixed road run and when on the summer road tyres was getting 30 mpg and its the same with the new boots
Only difference is I now have a K&N and was using the BP ultimate fuel.
Still well pleased with 30mpg! All things shipping, storage, transport. UK and worldwide.

Is that bigger in width, profile, diameter or all?
Whatever the answer, yes you can, but it all depends on what wheel you want to run.
Also, newer models don't have the same clearance in the front wheel well as the pre 06 [or 07?] models.
I'm running 285/50/20 with no problems....... always on the road less travelled 🚧
