Last time I looked at Gordon's website he had the Maxxis for sale for what looked like a Very reasonable price.

I ask because I am tempted

I have these on my D4 so I do not see an issue for the D3

Gup

I have Cooper 265 60 18 A/T on my D3 with ARB bar not a problem. The only problem is the longevity of these tyres. Have been rotating 5 tyres every 5thou to 8thou, have 43000 on them which I estimate only 5thou left, Not good for 5 tyres. On the other hand have had them in mud sand rock with no problems. Very quite on the road. The load rating is only 109 which is the bottom what LR recommend for this vehicle. Next tyres are going to be Bridgestone Dueler A/T 265/60R 18 LT load rating 114 speed s with a OD of 775. The standard load rating for factory fitted tyres is 112, so I think these tyres with a heaveier wall may be quite good.

Just clocked over 25,000Klm's on the Cooper LTZ 285/60/18's and have not rotated the spare. They have worn very evenly and at this rate, I expect another 40K out of them.
They have a load rating of 120 and an OD of 800mm.
