So... after mucho deliberatio, I went for Kumho KL78s (235/65 R17 108) on all corners. These replaced the factory fitted GYWranglers.
After six months, I can declare myself well impressed in all conditions. They are no noisier than my GYWranglers were, despite their more rugged pattern. They perform admirably in wet & dry on road and are excellent offroad, in wet fields, slippery tracks etc. MPG isn't apparently affected by the change of tyre. And they were a fair bit less costly (at £504 for 5, fitted, valves, balanced etc at Performance Tyres) than the GYs.
All in all, I'm happy. And they look the part on a freely.

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...

Good price, they look a bit like the old GG AT2s to me. FL2 SD4 Metropolis Auto Santorini Black / ivory completely stock.

It's true that light travels faster than sound, some people look quite intelligent until you hear them speak.


Stop global winging.

Where are Performance Tyres based? Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.
