4/5

Continental Sport Contact 6

The performance in wet conditions is pretty good. I didn't notice the increase in fuel economy that was promised by the tyre label, however.

5/5

Continental Cross Contact LX Sport

While I haven't travelled many miles yet, I'm really pleased with how they perform.

5/5

Michelin CrossClimate 2

To this point, these tyres have been truly remarkable allowing added stability and better control of the vehicle while driving.

5/5

Michelin Latitude Cross

Fantastic performance in all types of weather, there are no issues.

5/5

Pirelli Scorpion Zero

Function perfectly and remove a large amount of water in the event of heavy rainfall.

5/5

Pirelli Scorpion Zero

So far the tyres are holding up very well but we will have to wait and see how they do over time.

5/5

Hankook DynaPro HP2+ (RA33D)

These Hankook tyres manage all of the weather conditions tremendously, providing incredible grip and stability on the road.

5/5

Your response is great. The lack of grip is quite controlled unlike the series Land Rovers which can be quite lively. Mud tyres may be better off road but these still allow you to drive to just about anywhere in 2wd, I haven't been bogged down yet even in the really thick muddy tracks.

5/5

Michelin Latitude Cross

These are excellent for dealing with snow, ice and mud, but while driving on the road, they act like regular road tyres instead of all-terrain tyres.

5/5

Pirelli Scorpion Zero

Always dependable in any weather, never let me down with their great quality.

285/45 R21 is a large SUV tyre size. This is fitted as standard on the Mercedes-AMG G 63. The numbers indicate the following specifications. The "285" indicates the width in mm. The "45" indicates the sidewall height as a percentage of the tyre width. So, in this case, the sidewall height is 128mm. "R" indicates a radial tyre and "21" means it is on a 21-inch rim. This gives an overall diameter of 790mm. The sidewall protects the rim from damage on uneven surfaces. We supply 285/45 R21 tyres, including the XL versions, on Tyres.co.uk.
