Guy I know had horrer stories when he ran the 245's in passenger construction. My 265's in LT construction have been bullerproof, would recommend them.

Are these for road use only or a mixture of on/off road?

Just check the load/speed rating BM before you buy Thumbs Up


I had looked at them before but I went with the Cooper ST's as an off road set and back on Wranglers for road.

The ones i am looking at have a 111S load and speed rating which i believe is ok for the disco 3. I intend to use them for mainly on road with a little pulling my caravan out of wet or mudy fields. Thanks for the replies.

Anyone with winter experience with these tyres?
And how do they feel on wet roads. Heard some bad stories
about braking performance...

Thanks

Have been running these for a while now and notice no difference in performance to Wranglers. As for braking in the wet i was going down the M6 motorway in rain last Friday i was doing 60 - 65 mph with my caravan (1350 KG) on the back I was in the midle lane when the car in front decided to brake quite hard as they had nearly missed their junction I was forced to brake hard and the tyres and car performed perfectly in a straight line etc.
