Thanks Davidov and Nachaluva for the comments. I already have Yokohama Geolander ATS on my 2002 Subi and are looking to preserve them. I have done around 60,000 km on them they still have plenty of tread. I want to put them on a second set of rims and put an every day road tyre on for daily commuting to the rail station etc.
Hence I am looking at Maxxis or maybe the Toyo or something else for that sort of driving.
What I don't want to do is put a tyre on that only does say 30-40,000 km and I end up spending more money replacing it again than if I keep running the ATS for off road and every day use.
On the 2004 I still have the Yoko G900 and will be getting a second set of ATS on spare rims for that. I got caught out this winter as my daughter was working up at the snow and she took my ATS on the 2004 and I ended up with her G900 which limited me for off road driving over winter.
