Time for new tires. V. what do i get? - Land Rovers Only

Grid_Lock · 07-02-2008, 10:44 PM

So my tires are down to their wear bars on my 99 DII. Its starting to look more and more like some pussy grocery getter, instead of the off road bruit it is.

Its stock ride height, so I'm wondering the biggest tires that will fit.

I'm also looking for a recommendations on what type of tires to buy. I don't really do any off roading. I put around on occasion, but nothing that could utilize something like boggers.

I have a lot of snow in the winter, but I've already got a great set of wall nut tread with studs, so i will use the new tires primarily as summer tires.

If you have pictures of your rig with the tires you recommends, i would be really appreciative if you could post pics.

Basic Tire Information

Search and ye shall find

As for which brand type to get that's up to you. I would just get a good AT and be happy.

245/75/16 is a good size without a lift. As for the type, that is your call based on the type of driving you do.
