I saw these tires in a showroom behind Dubai Garden Center, but size was 265/75/R16 instead of 265/70/R16, do u guys think that will really make some huge difference? price he quoted was around 500 i guess per tire. By the way, firestone is also a product of Bridgestone if am not wrong
@zarir, I like the thread pattern of AT3, I checked cooper site and it is available in the size I need which is OE for SWB pajero. Can you please tell whether they are heavy like BFGs, I too have grandtrek right now which I have been using on/off road for last 10K kms, have been to 6 drives so far
Ahmad bhai, thanks for your feedback, with all the feedback I received so far, it is clear that I do not need aggressive pattern so I will leave it aside. Is there any place where many DO members go to change the tires and get some discount or can be sure that alignment and balancing is done properly?
Regards,

Hey Denis,
I currently have Dunlop and I actually do not have any problem apart from steering wobble at high speed (130+) which I believe is due to uneven tire wear since previous owner wanted to save alignment money :(. I liked the aggressive thread pattern of BFGs but wanted to know whether these tires will put any strain on the engine (mine is a 3.0 V6 not 3.8) and do they provide any functional benefit in the desert. My primary goal for this car is desert so looks doesn’t matter, hence if BFGs and Cooper Discoverer does not provide any benefit in desert, I frankly do not want them. I already looked at Yokohama and was offered AED 620 per tire for 2014 stock. Anyone knows where I could get Bridgestone Dueler A/T 697? no one seems to have them. Any one here running Bridgestone 697?
