Tyre types and pressures

<< < (2/3) > >>

That actually sounds a bit soft to me, the RRC EfI should be about 30/35 and I run ours a little harder than that-31/37 because of the gas tank and the dogs, it handles fine on a road biased AT tyre.
Have your tried putting the ATs on the front, it may help keep the car in a straight line by having the road biased tyres on the back and the AT on the front.  In doing this you may notice more understeer at the cost of better stability.
However I must agree that, more than any other car, a Landie should be sat on a matching set of boots.

Hi
I am running a set of 205 "bog standards" that came with the car.
I will need to change them soon - the front are looking sad!!
But I hate to say it, the car is 4 wheel drive and it makes sense to have the same boots all round.
It is recommended by Landrover that ALL 4 tyres are replaced at the same time and of the same make and types.
It has to be done!!  8)  8)  8)

Just when we all started thinking your Missus was the smart one.

But seriously you are right, I swap ours round regularly to even out the wear and 'cos it's lifted and the castor angle's a bit up the wall I swap them side to side as well.  Saves slowing down for roundabouts :lol:

Thanks for the opinions guys.  Seems to me that I shall be digging deep to get a pair of BFG ATs for the front as well....

I'm sure my wife will be very pleased!
