Hi guys just wanted some opinions really. Currently running 19" with MTR's which I love. Dont do much off road but like the aggressive look etc etc. However the two front tyres now need replacing as i do alot of motorway miles - 36k ish PA. Do i (a) replace the front 2 with new MTR's or (b) take off all 4 and replace with General grabbers ? Also its coming up to snowing season and I live out in the sticks where they dont grit etc so never driven the disco in snow yet. Are both capable in the snow if i drop the pressures ?

Kind regards

Rob

Good in snow even on slicks!! Pirelli ATRs or GG ATs (or AT2s with a set of 18"ers) would be your options, less noise & no mpg reduction (from my expeers using ATRs in the Heelands) and great in snow. SWMBO's D3 goes onto ATRs & mine onto MTRs for the snow, sorted (touch wood). Thumbs Up

Any reason why you run the mtr's over the winter as opposed to any other ?
