Hi, been lurking here and all things working out, I'm about to buy a 120 series Prado from a dealer and officially join the community! It needs new tyres, and I've got the option to have the dealer fit OEM's (Dunlop Grandtrek AT20), or can get them to discount by $1200 and I'll sort out my own tyres.
We're getting the vehicle to tow a yet to be acquired caravan, and some light off-roading. The Dunlops seem to have a pretty subdued tread pattern, and seem to be road-focused... So probably less noisy, but I've also read some unflattering reviews re: wet handling.
Plenty of tyres like the Bridgestone Duelers A/T 697 and others to handle both towing and possibly more capable off-roading? Wondering if I'm silly for looking at this given the time it'll likely spend on-road, and if I should just let the dealer put Grandtreks on?
Anyone have experience with the Dunlops, Duelers, or other recommendations?
