2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Tambora Flame

New Boots...

Pirelli Scorpion ATR:

Running them on the Disco and can't speak too highly of them - really cracking all-rounders - but they're not available in 235/60/R18. No bother; I needed four tyres together, so 255/60/R18 it is... They fit just nicely.

Very nice, might have a look at them when I need tyres as I believe the Cooper Zeon LTZ is no longer available.

Got a pic of the tread FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

What sort of mileage do you get from a set of these? Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

A reliable 50k+ is reported on D3/4s - probably even better on a FL2.

Basically, you get better life, better off-road performance, and better puncture resistance than standard road tyres, with minimal increase in noise or fuel consumption - though, on the FL2, I guess the increase in fuel consumption may be a little greater, given they're designed with heavier vehicles in mind and a 112 load rating.

Couple of pictures with the Pirellis 255 x 60 R18.
Good lift to get the rim further away from the ground.

The GT's are pretty good, got 40k out of a set of them on our VW Tiguan. second set fitted
I'd happily go for the Pirelli ATR with that life span. So disappointed with my Goodyear Efficient Grips, they will be done before 20K! Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948
