I love this shot:
So how did the MT/R's hold up? That's what you all were running, yes?

MTR's were great, busted one (during a spot of high speed mountain climbing/rock crawl ) and TFC damaged one in a river but still managed a spot of high speed driving with the DSC compensating for the lack of air in the tyre

Yer, MT/R's were great - the outer 'skin' on the sidewall is prone to getting pinched at low pressures (we initially ran at 18psi front, 20psi rear) but this doesn't compromise the tyres integrity. The one I tw@tted damaged the rim, not the tyre. We ran slightly higher pressures later (20psi front, 25 psi rear) and no further problems ocurred, the rear pressure was high simply due to the weight of the kit we were carrying, with a lower load 20 psi front & rear would probably be fine for Freelander 2 Diesel, Discovery 3 / RR Sport TDV6 & RR Sport TDV8, Defender (TD5 & Puma) - available Now!
