Please consult your dealer for up-to-date information.

probably havnt given LR enough of a kick back to list them, thats all

usually its not just about the product being good (there are many of those) its about whos got the biggest pot of marketing cash

/notice how most manufacturers change every year or two, between models....what was "recommended" one year, may be out of fashion the next cheers

Aside from the fact that MT's would be terrible in the winter... I can fit all sorts of tires to my diesel!

They used to be optional fit, but not now

May as well put them up for sale! They are 255/55R19 MT/R's on genuine LR 19" alloys (2004 4.4 style) Land Rover Addict

I just installed a set of 255/60/19 Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V1. I am surprised how well they handle considering how soft they are compared to the Pirelli Scorpion tires I just took off.

Oh, and there so much more quiet and quite a bit cheaper VS the 255/55/19 size. I just hope these dont start cupping like the Pirelli's did.... what a nightmare that was.

I 100% disagree, I've got MTR's on mine and I've been everywhere, literally, 2 1/2 foot snow drifts, compacted snow the lot and it's just ploughed through without a problem. Even steep slopes where it was basically ice with crunchy snow covering it, the RR still had no problems. 2006 Mercedes CLS

But really finding it hard to fight the urge for a S/C...

I'm sure they'd sell quickly...

Maybe an idea of price and a post in for sale section unless you want a lot of PMs.
