Not 'all' options are on that wiki page are they? Mine sits on 255/55R18's and I don't see those listed?

I don't think 255 55 18's are the correct load for a Disco 3/4, I think they are 109 from memory. Acceptable to the likes of most people but your insurance company could play silly Censored in the worst case scenario.

I've just checked blackcircles, there are no tyres rated higher than 109 for 255 50 18, Confused

http://www.blackcircles.com/order/tyres?&a...mp;speed=V

check your size if you're right you're on the wrong ones, bad news and may cost a bit to swap but better than having your insurance revoked if you have an incident Thumbs Up

How I read your post is; you are getting a new D4 ? in April and you have purchased some Landmark wheels, I am guessing 20", if so the correct size is 255/50x20 but some will fit 275/45x20 to give a better option on tyres.

Or am I not getting the full picture.

How I read it too Andy, although could be a new to the OP D3 after all some if us prefer the original, not the face lift model Whistle

255/50x20's are correct for 20" landmarks alloys

and @diskostew, your on the wrong size tyre, should be 255/60x18, which will then give you the correct load rating. Your right, 255/55x18's are 109 and not higher, but that because its the wrong size.

Thanks for the help and advice guys. I have checked them and yes, I will be a few hundred quid lighter in the pocket over the festive period Big Cry

Why would someone put a new set of GG AT's on it that are the wrong size!!!

They are in great nick so can't have been fitted much before I got the vehicle in April.

Cheers,

Darren

Someone may have just bought a set of RRS rims? Are they Disco wheels ?

You should pull some cash back by selling them on to a RRS owner on the sister site or eBay Thumbs Up

I've just got a set too. Will be going for 265/50/20 which give correct load rating for a d3 and is closest to correct overal diameter. Currently have 255/50 which are max 109 which I believe is correct for d4 but not d3.

They are a standard ten spoke rim. ALY72190U is the part number I believe.
