Wheel & tyre database

Has anyone compiled a database of the various wheels & tyres available for the Discovery 3? I have seen this done for the G-Wagen & Pinzgauer. If not I think it would be a useful resource on this site.
Specifically I am interested in what Land-Rover manufactured 18"+19" (D3, RR or RRS) rims will fit the D3 and whether there are all-terrain tyres available/in the pipeline that will fit.
I am impressed that Goodyear have produced a 255/55-19 version of the MTR, they are great off road but too aggressive for my intended use on a D3.

I'd be even more impressed if I could get hold of them!

I hadn't realised that they were in the 'unobtainium' category. I took the Goodyear catalogue as gospel-more fool me.
That said, when I wanted some 287/75R16 Goodyear MT/R for my Pinzgauer 716K about 2 years ago they were on the website but upon enquiry with my local ATS depot were not yet available in the UK, subsequently confirmed when I contacted Goodyear. BUT-they were listed on Bronco4x4 website so I ordered them & they turned up in 7-10 days. I don't know whether they drew them in from European stock or American, whatever-their service was excellent & they delivered when theoretically they were not available at all. Look at:-

The Goodyear MT/R is a great tyre but I have to say I insist upon the white letters inboard, I don't go for the yanktastic loud exhibitionism.
