Can’t make up my mind…?

Having 20 inch alloys fitted with 50/50 off road tyres..

Guys in the tyre shop aren’t impressed.. I think it looks pretty good.

They look very nice to me Filters are in fact so good that in certain circumstances, when the ambient air is already polluted, a diesel car will tend to extract more particles from the air than it emits. Emissions Analytics worked with........etc etc

It only matters what you think. I quite like the AT's on the 405. Thought about it myself.

Its very subjective. I'm not a fan of side steps, but the wife insisted! Rolling Eyes

Side steps do save the seat from wearing, so there's a very practical reason to have them Thumbs Up

The 50/50 road/all terrain looks fine to me. Purely depends on where you drive - the Pirelli Scorpions serve most purposes for most drivers. 2015 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

Are you going to get the proper use out of them? Driving down the occasional dirt track doesn’t really count. I work in forestry and use a front wheel drive van with a road set up and get to 80% of the locations I need to. The other 20% I’ll walk it. The disadvantages of off road tyres greatly out weighs the pros when it comes to using the likes of scorpions. The road noise, breaking distance and fuel consumption are all things to take into account

Or was that what you walked. Laughing

You’ll be surprised where you can get a van. Fleet some how think it’s cheaper to repair vans rather than issue vehicles fit for purpose.

Easy Peasy with traction control in a modern van. or even a small car. I've taken the dogs out walking through worse.

Reminds me of the Grand Tour

How offroad can you go in a regular car ? Way off if you really need to as long as you don't need huge ground clearance and it's dry. Fuji White / Jet 2012 4.4 TDV8 Westminster

Even though I do run all terrain on the l322,
My transit in the picture was perfectly fine but the defender was starting to spin its wheels, but it did have a 16ft ifor Williams on the hook.
