    I love my wildpeak at3s however the toyos are an excellent tyre as well got a few mates with them without any complaints!!! My wildpeaks have seen alot of highway and lots of beach with some rocky hillclimbs etc and have never failed me in 50k with still about half tread

    Thanks guys i think the wilpeaks will do the job,the m/thompsens baja at3 are good tyres but seem to ride very harshly on h/way which is what is on patrol at moment.

    These are what I've got. The ATZ P3's. Very heavy tyre. Just clicking over 70k on them and they're starting to wear into "replace me soon" territory. 95% onroad/highway driving. And off road they are awesome begin such an aggressive "all terrain" tyre.
    Will be replacing them like for like. Very happy.

    Yes if I was doing a lot of offroad work I would stay with the m/ thompsens a tough tyre but not all that suitable on h/way in rain with 430 horsepower.
