Pirelli Scorpian are always a good choice for a L322. |

My scorpions in 20" did not wear well at all - In Fact they were foxing shocking ! 11k on the front and 16k on the rear! The odd thing is scorpions in 19" on another L322 of mine lasted 25k that said I do like scorpions but the Grabbers look BAD ASS ! And go absolutely anywhere!

+1 for the vredestein wintertrac, fitted mine 2 weeks ago and drove them to Switzerland. They look good, feel good and the sound is OK as it is not much louder then my Continental summer tires. |

It's a good job you don't like bikes, I managed 1100 miles out of a rear tyre on it at £170 a pop too!!. In honesty I agree with you though 11k is pretty shocking for something like a Scorpion, I've put some on mine because I only really needed to replace two and I've now got a complete set of 4, plus I got a great deal on them, when these have worn out though I will be going for a set of Grabbers. |

Just an update on these General AT tyres - still on the same set @ 35k miles on them and still 6mm of tread left! Even wear and if anything they are now really quiet. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |

Have decided to replace my 255 50 20s with 275 45 20 when the time comes. I think i will go for General grabber at. have had Cooper LTZs in the past on my discovery and was very happy with the look and grip but had bother with the sidewalls splitting (common problem apparently). Shame really as they were a fab tyre
