IF your happy with the tires you have, then get them again.
If your doing 90/10 then dont bother with AT's just stick with HT's...

Truckster,
If he is replacing the original tyres Dunlops, they would cost a fortune. The reason I said a all terrain tyre is the extra deepth of tread and open pattern. Much better in the wet.

Dunlops may cost a bit more( ? never priced them), but if ya happy with them and got good klms.
Specially if hes not going offroad, would get more out of HT's..
