All Terrain Tyres on Clayton Wheels

[brad03uk]

Hi all, apologies if this is a frequently asked point but can anyone advise/have photos of a T6/6.1 with standard VW Clayton wheels with All Terrain Tyres Fitted.
I’m looking to swap my tyres for practicality as a lot of my driving is along Cornish lanes with verges for passing places and deep pot holes.
Any advise or experience appreciated.

Thread '16” Alloys With All Terrain Tyres?'

3 Sep 2018

Hi
Have a set of 16” T6 alloys in the garage, which I’m thinking about using as my winter wheels, but would like them to look a bit more beefy than standard.

I’ve read through a few posts on A/T’s on 17in rims, but not found anything (yet) on 16”s. Has anyone seen anything, they could point me at. Looking to fit something like a Cooper A/T 3 which is a bit less ‘off road’ that a BF Goodridge A/T

Any advice welcome and thanks!

Amazing, thanks just what I was after.

Really nice tyres, probably they fit right too.
But they do not look much different from cheap standard / legal All-Season van ( "C") tyres as below.
Not sure it makes sense for the effort to have them approved. The UK is much more permissive, as I understand, though.

In picture,
they have already a full winter season, plus some 1k miles this fall, on the shoulders.

I have a Maxxis 3peaks hoop as my spare it weighs as much as a small moon, 5 or 6 kg more than the regukar van tyre it replaced. As it was a spare I wasn't too concerned but wouldn't have it as the normal road tyre.

And that's the rub. There are decent manufacturer certified mud and snow tyres, and there are woeful 3peaks certified boots. Fortunately we have a large user base on here so theres plenty of feedback about what actually works.

Well, they are heavy 8 plyes 107/109 load rated , so they can take a lot of abuse in mild off road too, that's why I was comparing them with the ones in this thread. Did last summer in Sardinia. Cheap stuff, I reckon. Snow behavior is decent as I can see every day at home. Photo of 15 min ago, we are having a pause of the snowing, today.

Just seen this post, have bf goodrich ko2s on also on cornish lanes and they are great a little bit of road noise at 30mph but fine after that and a much smoother ride.
