A/T tyres - yokel
Morning,

I have a RAV 4 which surprise surprise does leave the tarmac for use on country tracks near home.

The current tyres are Bridgestone Dueler H/T 235/60/R16 100H, these do not grip well on these tracks (gravel, grass, wet etc)and slide even under braking at low speed (13k miles on the clock and plenty of tread left)

I cannot find any A/T tyres in 235/60 so is it possible to fit 235/70/R 16 with a different speed rating?

Would I need new rims, would it affect the performance on road i.e. make the car unstable, would it cause any other problems?

Any assistance or tyre recommendations appreciated?

Thanks,

Gary (e-mail if you like gary111@btinternet.com or gary.roberts@galileo.com)
