BFGoodrich All-Terrains vs Michelin Agilis CrossClimates: Camper Van Tyre Update: RND Diaries 

Love my WILDPEAK A/T AT3WA as a step down from the BFs

Here in the UK bfg all terrains are £250 a tyre. Maxxis do a remould for £156 so thats my next tyre to try. Ive had the Agillis on and they are very hard wearing

I am using 225/75/16 Michelle Agilis Cross Climate on my 4x4 , great on wet rocks, side protection good enough, no so good in the mud but big + advantage i can visit europe even in the winter time M+S on side wall, great video btw👌

Very helpful. Thank you

Thanks for this! Lots of hard work in research and great insight into your experience. I’ve got a mk8 transit and what you’ve said about the bfg and using lower gearing has put me off. The cross climates look great and I think prob a more sensible option. Thanks for this insightful review

Fitted these on my transit, felt a bit heavier & stiff, tuck a bit of the nippiness away on take off but apart from that they're great

The BFGs are an excellent tyre, BUT they are a heavy tyre this affects acceleration and braking as they take more energy to get them up to speed and they act like a big flywheel when braking, this increases pad wear. I have them on a Hilux in standard size and lost 2mpg over the factory fit tyres and brake pads lasted 15k less (both genuine pads) they are fine in my application as the pros outweigh the cons but I wouldn’t fit them to out T5 it will be Michelin CC2s when it’s due tyres.

When I watched your video a few months back, it's made me consider the usual camper van path. I have a Sprinter 5t twin wheel van, and imagined I'd also go the A/T tyre route. But I was always considering that if Mercedes spent millions designing the van, maybe the tyre size (195/75/16) Axle ratio, automatic gearbox gearing were all designed at one item. Then watching your video it confirmed my worry. I'm now considering a slight increase to 205/75/16's in the Michelin Agillis Crossclimates. I'll be travelling round the world and wanted A/T's, for the extra insurance of the side walls and handling of gravel roads. So after a year, are you a confirmed standard size tyre man, or have you updated thoughts on the matter. Seriously hard to find a voice of caution like yours, so any advice would be gratefully received.

I wonder if these would fit on my 2013 iLoad 😊

Kleber are a good brand too, my understanding is they are made by Michelin's factory in Eastern Europe, so they are good quality just a bit cheaper. Very useful video by the way, I have to say I can't see the off road tyres helping a lot in mud on a RWD drive vehicle, my experiences in muddy fields is that the treads just fill up with mud, I agree the all season tyres with the Mud/Snow symbol are a good compomise for British roads and are great on wet grass as long as it hasnt turned to mud.

What Tyre would you suggest for my ford transit fwd ? I would be hauling up to 1tonne of tools daily

I now am on my second van with the Michelins and are just so good. Ride, safety, durability, grip and chunky looks . Just now want to compare in snow. Have you considered getting a remap done to up power and torque?

The US version of that exact same tire does NOT look like that.

Michelins are noisy! Great tire but loud..
