United Kingdom 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Lux Auto Santorini Black

I'm looking at getting a set of Grabber GT's.

Can anyone tell me what the Treadwear and Traction figures are for these please? (Should be shown on the side wall)

It'll be interesting to see how it compares to the Conti UHP.

Similar tread pattern also, but no surprise as I'm sure I read somewhere that Continental own General Tyre.

what about the hts tires? reviews seem good on them but harder to get in the uk, and they don't come in 235/65 they are 235/70 which might be a problem? Freelander 57 plate XS Blue Auto

I mentioned the HTS in this parallel thread http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic21733.html
Yes, shame it doesn't come in 235 65 17 as its a 20% off road tyre. Ideal for some folks...... * GONE. GS TD4 Manual MY2013. Orkney Grey with privacy, cold and clearview packs, armrests (a must!) and a spoiler.
* 2011 4.4 TDV8 Full Fat. Amazing piece of kit.
* GONE.2012 RR Sport HSE SDV6 Orkney Grey. Rocket ship. 33mpg.
* Range Rover Classic '93 200Tdi Factory fit
* 1949 80" in family since 1975 Smile

The difference in sidewall height between 235/65 and 235/70 is less than 1/2", won't matter in rolling circumference or fitment and suspension, same width just a tad higher.
