If you don’t really go off-road, I’d go for something more road-biased than AT3s. |

Cooper AT3’s are far quieter than General AT’s I’ve got a set of 285/50/20’s on mine for winter /shooting season - they are the nicest most comfortable AT’s I’ve driven on in a LR/RR. I’ve had 3 sets of the Grabbers and the Coopers are a far better and more refined tyre.

For just the occasional muddy track I wouldn't deviate from road tyres as any off road or semi off road tyre will be a serious compromise for road handling and especially if you are pushing it hard. Unless you have good reason not to I'd go with stock OEM Pirelli Scorpion Verde 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

They’re not very well rated against other completely road-focused tyres (and Verdes don’t do well, either):

I couldn’t tell the difference when we had some on the L322 that’s for sure. We used to cross some wet grass fields, they were a nightmare on the standard tyres.

Verdes are an all season tyre so won't match summer tyres in summer tests. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Those in the test aren’t the all-season variant. |
