Mine has 235 55 R19 on them from the factory as original tyres. This is the "legal" size for the car as well. I think the 255 55 R19 was the correct size for disco's. As they are a bit bigger, your speedo won't read as correct as the original size, beside that I don't think that's a huge problem. For this car I don't recommend the Continental Contact UHP's I got on. They perform rubbish when wet. I read a lot about people being happy with Wranglers though. 2010 Freelander 2 Select TD4 auto....gone 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 auto ...current |

Yes, it will eventially wind the transfer box up, your running with the rear wheels turning alot slower than the rears. It will cause damage.
I agree, they are a great tyre. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come......... |

Hmm, I thought that as we are not using 100% difflocks, winding up the gearbox should not be a concern. 2010 Freelander 2 Select TD4 auto....gone 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 auto ...current |
