I was thinking the same way. I had General Grabber UHPs on my P38 and they were excellent. I also read really good things about the Hankook Ventus ST. Sizing options on the 20" for the FFRR meant less choice however as I wanted the standard 255/50 set up so I ended up going standard with the Pirelli Scorpions. Happy so far. 2012 5.0L S/C

I thought about keeping standard size but really liked the AB wheels of the RRS so have gone that route with 275/45/20 tyres which gives a lot more choice.

The UHPs I had on my P38 looked fantastic. Not chunky at all - actually I thought quite road biased. Very smooth and totally quiet. They are directional so you can't change them around so you'll need a standard spare. 2012 5.0L S/C

Cant offer any advice but keep us posted what you go for? I'll be in the market for new tyres not long into the new year so will be going through the same dilemma |

googsy2 is right about the survey and Hankook Ventus ST coming out top. The survey was on 'the other place'. Rangerovers.net. 2012 5.0L S/C

I've got 275/40/20 Hankook Ventus ST's on my Cayenne and have found them to be excellent so far...

Thanks Paulo, its good to hear they perform well, do they offer good handling? A few reviews suggest the General Grabbers have a flexible sidewall which you can feel in bends, not sure I like the sound of that?

These look like a really good all season tyre for 20" Range Rover rims:
