Nick

Are LR officially revising there requirements re load index for tyres on the D3 then, i thought 111 was the minimum?

That's the tyre spec on the release notes
You do have to order some new tyre imformation stickers for vehicles if these are fitted but it says that will not be required for 10MY onwards as the new sticker will be in place

Maybe so !!

111 has always been overkill, as Oz spec D3 have always had the door sticker with 109's as their tyre spec.

So, has 09 spec got the damped steering rack like the RRS?

Glad I went with me 265/50 x20's now. (albeit 111W's)

MY10 hi line has 20" alloys as std I know that much, because the brake caliper brackets are bigger, I expect for bigger discs.

Australia 2005 LR3 4.4 V8 HSE Auto Java BlackLR3

I have a 2006 V8 HSE.

Original tyres were 255/55x19 Good Year Wranglers, got 32,000 km out of them. Not a bad tyre.
I have then had Pirelli Scorpion Zeros fitted, have done 23,000 km and will be lucky to get to 30,000 km. A bit disappointing, but generally these tyres have more grip than the Good Years and are a little bit quieter. A set of these set me back AU$1900 fitted.

I am having RR 20" stormer replicas fitted next week with 295/45x20 Kumhos. A set of these, with the rims, will cost AU$2500 fitted, so it is not a bad deal. I have these same tyres on another 4x4 and they are very good. Quiet and excellent in the wet. Have done 15,000 km on that car (Nissan Navara) and show only a little wear.

The compliance plate in the car says that the minimum tyre load index should be 109 and speed rating H.
 Java Black HSE V8 with everything but rear diff lock...damn!!

Australia 2005 Discovery 3 4.4 V8 HSE Auto Zambezi SilverDiscovery 3

G'day Black LR3, I did the same as you're doing here. I got the Overfinch 20" replica and with Nexen Roadian HP in 295/45/20 size all up was $1950 - delivered to Perth - from Sydney. I din't get pricing for the Stormers as I was happy with the Overfinch copies.

Ronp had some pictures which sold me. You can go to my gallery to check out mine.

I can give details of the SYdney tyre supplier if you wish. From memory it was called "AAA Tyre" - I have exact detail if you wish. they even threw in a full set of wheel bolts after i queried the carryover of the previous LR ones off the HSE wheels.

I priced up the Pirelli Scorpions and could get better than $475 per tyre - so the 20's were any easy decision - does the looks a huge lift.
