No they are 275.45.20

Not really any rubbing at all unless on full lock
The bloke in the shop said they well out preformed the general grabbers that I was also looking at.

I had been looking at the new ATs. My brother has them on his. But they don't look anywhere near as good as these!

Nice tyre, shame the size is wrong for the car. Shocked

When I collected mine the Dealer tried to fob me off saying these were OK for the FF, but I argued they weren't.

Land Rover have never fitted to them to a Range Rover L322, so you're taking an insurance risk with these, as the speed and load rating are also incorrect.

Sorry to sound like a doomsdayer, but insurance companies will find absolutely any minor point NOT to pay out in the case of a claim. That's why the main dealer I was buying from were forced to put on 4 brand new correct size tyres. In theory, they are fine, legally they are not.

if you are willing to take the risk, then its happy days, right? Discovery 4 HSE

Well, I suppose not no, I wanted my car to be OE spec, and used the insurance thing to force the Dealer into giving me 4 new tyres.

The problem is, there is SO few tyres to choose from in the std size, and the ones you've bought I recently saw at Nene Overland when I was buying my Defender. They look awesome in the flesh and I'd love them on the RR. But, I dont think they look quite right either.

Each to their own. Sorry If I seemed uber negative! Discovery 4 HSE

Didn't find it negative, just informative Very Happy

As you said there isn't a lot of choice of tyres that size, especially if you want something with a little more off road capabilities.

I personally think they look great on my FFRR, make it look a little more rugged Very Happy

Yea il try and sort that out, I haven't pulled up next to his to compare them yet. He has the 275 45 20. But the coopers do look a lot more capable, but then again Untill iv properly tested them out I'm not sure. Il out laning on Saturday so will hopefully have some good pics and abit of a review of the tyres for you guys Very Happy
