[[Tyres & Sizes for the Discovery 3]]

Revision as of 18:09, 20 January 2009

Wheel weight ratings:

As at Jan 2009, all Discovery 3 factory fit and dealer fit wheels (17, 18 & 19") have been rated at 940kg per rim. While it is physically possible to fit wheels from the Range Rover Sport and some later FFRR wheels, it should be noted that the rims are rated for a lower weight.

FFRR - 925kg

RRS - 900kg

Fitment of the FFRR or RRS rims may therefore have an impact on your insurance. If in doubt, always check with your insurer. To date there have been no incidents reported on Disco3.co.uk of either FFRR or RRS wheels failing, nor have there been any reports of insurers questioning the fitment of these wheels.


Tyres:

It should be noted that the standard Disco3 tyre fitment in the United Kingdom is 255/55/19 with a 111 weight rating. The minimum weight rating in the UK is 111 per tyre, while in Australia a lower limit of 109 applies. LR do NOT recommend the fitment of the RRS 255/50/19 107 tyre to the Disco3 due to the smaller rolling circumference and the lower load rating.
