Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Falken Wildpeak AT3W 245-70-16 Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero Sport 18,000 miles September 12, 2026

These are the best AT tyres I have ever had. And they really get abused, just of where I live. Sand, mud, stones and rocks, no problem. But also on the tarmac, they are pretty comfy and no humming or vibrations. I am considering a new 4x4 and I will have the dealer fit these tyres for sure.

Goodyear EfficientGrip 2 SUV 265-60-18 Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero Sport 85,000 miles August 28, 2026

Best in class for an midsize SUV but when it reaches to 3 years also 85000 the tires started to slide it became hardened don’t stick to the road when accelerating also because I parked my car outside in the sun most of the days .

Falken Wildpeak AT3W 245-70-16- Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero Sport 1 miles March 7, 2025
Changed from Pirelli Scorpion AT plus to these. The difference is amazing. So much more grip on our "road", which is a 3km goat track down a mountain, which gets ultra slippery and muddy when it rains. Best AT tyres I have had under my Mitsubishi. Very happy. And they look good too.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV 265-50-20- Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero Sport 10,000 miles December 29, 2024
Best UHP summer tire. No other SUV tire comes close in terms of high speed performance. Braking, cornering, stability and road feedback. Only weakness is wear, they seem to wear pretty fast.

Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus 245-70-16- Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero Sport 8,000 miles August 22, 2024
After quite some research, decided on the Pirelli Scorpion AT+ and not regretted it! Really good tyres, both on and off road. The first year I had to drive one hour on Motorways to get to our newly purchased farm (Valencia, Spain) then 3km on a gritted forest road and the last 2,5km on the track down to the farm. This track is seriously bad, with deep ruts, bolders, roots and pointy rocks. Inititally I used to drive down in 4x4, but this is not really necessary as these tyres have plenty of grip, so in dry weather now driving in 4x2. But, as soon as it rains, the flatter parts of this track get seriously slippery, so always in 4x4. But also then these tyres perform really well and you feel safe and confident. We have now been living in the farm for a year and go up and down the mountain at least once a day, but sometimes twice of even three times. Have the tyres just over 2 years now and they have done 12.000km, but they still look in pretty good shape, seeing the abuse they get on a daily basis. Whether I would buy them again, depends on what is then available on the market. Tyres keep improving all the time. But for now, I could certainly recommend them.

I've been running this tire (265/50r20) for a month (Philippines), dry and wet are great, comfortable and quite. Cant give comment on wear yet.
I got the tires as package on my new wheels, for the price of the tires its working great hopefully will last. Will possibly buy again.

Crap tyre just long lasting everything worst about this tyre, it can manage a bit of offroading with no issues but its really bad tyre. Better than cheap quality but its fitted by manufacturer otherwise never buy as there are better options.
