Thanks Sniper - that is very helpful in differentiating the tyres.

Interested in the X3 grabbers. They are listed as 715mm dia in 215/75/15 size. A bit more than the calculated 704mm. Will they be ok on a standard '09 model?
Many thanks.
Many thanks.

Too much time on my hands
Thanks Lambert. Really good observation about the BFG Urban Terrains. What size are these again, and do you think the Urban Terrains inherit any of BFG's reputation for sidewall strength, or are they pretty much the same as other highway terrains?
Standard gen3 205 70 15. They have a much more pliant sidewall than the other bfg offerings that allow for a more refined and relaxed ride.

Sounds good for the Gen 3 - don't know if they would be so easy to fit on Gen 4?
I cannot find the Urban Terrains in 195/80 R15 (maybe unsurprising) or 215/75 R15 either.
Pity

It's the same thing if I wanted a ko or km they don't come in 205 70.
