Hi All,
So I'm currently running on 255/50/20. However I have come across 275/45/20 which seem to be slightly cheaper
Does anyone have an experience on running on 275/45/20?
Thanks,
Jamie

Used to run with 275/45/20 General Grabber GT on my Stormers on my 2 previous Disco's and never had any trouble with them. You will have to watch out for kerbs and get a slightly firmer ride as the profile is lower, but it's not uncomfortable.

On 255/50/20 at present as I bought a set of new take off wheels complete with tyres that had only done delivery miles. Will probably stick with the same size when they need changing.
