Bit of advice please.
If I wanted to put BFG at Ko2 on a 2013 D4 hse what size can I change wheels and tyres to. It currently has 255’s on a 19” rim. 19,s are not available in ko2. Would it be ok to go same way as I did with my d3 and get 18 rims and put 265/60/18 on it
Cheers

Genuine LR 18"'s wont fit a 3Ltr D4, only the early 2.7 D4's. If you want to fit 18's you have to go the Compomotive route

They sort of look to have a fairly aggressive tread pattern

Ok getting back to my original posts regarding putting different wheels on my D4 due to lack of decent tyres I have a couple more questions.
First one and please forgive my ignorance in my questions, if I was to get a set of D4 19” rims would these be ok to fit on. Last one is it ok to just get the TPMS valves taken of the 20” I have and stick them on the 19”

There's no problem fitting any original D3/4 rim to the D4.
Yes, you can swap the TPMS valves over. Remember the valve for the full size spare, if appropriate. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

Again a question to show my ignorance. When I get a set of 19s what is the format for fitting the TPMS
valves. Are they a easy fit. If I was to get new ones and leave my original ones on my 20”wheels do new ones fit easily and would they need programming to car system.

if you fit new ones (really easy, just bolt in) then you drive the car for a short distance (1/2 a mile or so) and it will auto detect the new TPMS valves.
