Hi Guys

Anyone know what the difference is between the 2 tyres above? I've done a lot of research, and this is what I want to fit on my Gen 4. Most of my off road will be with a bush caravan and on gravel roads and some sand.

Those are very nice tyres.I would stick to the original size 265/65/17 as i had bigger tyres fitted and there is a slight decrease in power from lower down.Have not really towed anything to see the impact but I believe the original; tyres will be better as well as for consumption

Hi Guys

I fitted the Cooper LT (light truck) 265/65R17. I am very impressed. Even on the tar, it is more comfortable than the Yokohama Geolanders. I also did some gravel roads today. A pleasure. And, it comes with a 85,000 km warranty. I just have to balance, rotate and align every 8,000 km!

Glad I made the switch
