not sure about the "Barum" tyres that are fitted ?
I'd get a price on an upgrade to Grabbers or even Continental
[with correct profile and load rating]. slowly re-building my gallery after the wipe out !!!!

I bought stormers for my P38 at midlandwheels with the nexen tires 275/45/20 and they are not to bad.
they cost me 1016€ delivered at my doorstep in Belgium.
That price even included hubcentric adaptors, wheelnuts and a set of locking wheelnuts as well.
Tires give me more grip in wet conditions then Pirelli ST 255/55/18 tires.
I have done 10000km with them and no signs of wear so they do not melt like chocolate in the sun.
Load rating is different (110) than disco3 so price may be different.
If you buy 20" you will have to adapt your driving style, no more jumping up the curbstones like you are used to with 18" wheels!

Ok managed to get Stormers in Northern Ireland along with the General Grabber UHPs . All in and fitted will cost £850 Sterling best deal I got. Having these fitted tomorrow when I pick them up so hopefully all will be well this time round.
