Best Road Tyres for Disco 3
IMHO I can say that the new tyres I got are the best available for the Disco3.
Had Wranglers and Conti's in the past, but not a patch on these!
General Grabber UHP's
Owned by Continetal
They look big n meaty for a UHP Road Tryre.
Look at home on a Disco 3
More than adequate for the D3 Weight at 114
They have a very Plush ride.
Superb road grip.
Great in wet
No noticeable road noise.
Wear rate ... still to find out - but Barry G swears by them.
Very Economical at *£100 per tyre all inclusive - and thats for 295/45/20.
[*but that's a special price to me, but reckon wouldn't be more than £125]
s'cuse the cow sh*t in the tread, out in the fields today
They're the Bogs Dollocks!! ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

They do look great Ron & definately a different tread pattern to the ones I traded in.

I've seen these type of wheels before but can't quite remember where...
I was going to say
- Ford Ka or
- Suzuki Swift
But seeing as how they have 5 wheel bolts instead of 4, the car is probably bigger than one of these...2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG
