I have a spare set of these wheels and am currently weighing up if I should get some at tyres for them for the winter months (they are currently on Michelin latitude sport tyres) or get some at tyres for my 21s Paul

Why would you want to fit low profile AT tyres? |

They wouldn't be that much lower profile only 1/2" less. Mainly for snow, don't intend any serious offroading Paul

If you want to use it off road, 1/2” of sidewall will make all of the difference. We’re staying somewhere this week where the only access is a 4 mile trip on forest logging tracks, with a very coarse aggregate surface. I can keep up 20-30 mph, at a push, on 20’s, 21’s really punish the car at those speeds. I know, I’ve tried both sets here.

I’ve got 2 sets of wheels, 22” Turbines for the summer with 285/40/22 on. My winter set for the shooting season are 20” with Cooper AT3 in 285/50/20. I have also had 3 sets of General AT’s and have still got a set on another vehicle. The Coopers are far quieter and much more refined than the GG.

For non taxing off road use in greasy muddy fields - perhaps towing a horsebox, livestock trailer, caravan or on a shoot, or if you also live in a snowy area and also need the vehicle for light off road use. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |
