General Grabber GT's

I'm moving to a new house with a new driveway so I needed new tyres.
Only time will tell if they are any good. 275 45 r20's General Grabber GT's







They may have a strange tread pattern compared to the 275 40 Vreds they've replaced but they are a lot more comfy over the bumps and ruts. Travelling around in circles again.

Do General grabbers do a 20" tyre do you know? I need tyres with a more chunky tread than road tyres for when I drive into the horses field for harrowing and rolling

Nino - they are a lot more road comfortable than the Vreds I had on previously. Tyre wear appears average but there is one disappointment with these tyres, they slip a lot in muddy tracks. I was expecting them to be more sure footed. It's not been a problem so far. They've coped quite well with damp fields but not muddy ruts. Travelling around in circles again.

Thanks J90, I don't do much mud- more rocks and grass. How do they feel at highway speed, 160-180 km/h.

Tyres on mine are 255 50 R20. Would putting a 55 on instead of 50 cause any issues- garage said best to check with Range Rover first as a precaution?

It will throw your speedo out slightly, there is a chance, albeit slim, that the speedo will read slower than actual speed.. best to check it against an aftermarket satnav, before you try to go 9% above the speed limit Rolling Eyes Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

275/45/20 and 255/50/20 have the same theoretical rolling diameter, 255/55/20 is +3% Regards
