They're not Brembos - at best to use LR's phrase in the D4 release promos "inspired by Brembo".

Well, the rotors are made by Brembo... :angel:

Are they indeed? My vehicle was fitted with Ferodo pads and as Ferodo make a SBD000624 disc I suspect mine are Ferodo (or are Ferodo and Brembo related?). It appears that anyone who makes these discs label them as the same part number, including Brembo, so I can't positively determine what brand my discs are. However if you've seen a Brembo name on one then it would seem that LR changed suppliers after mine was built which would not surprise me as lots of early 3.0 D4s had front discs replaced to overcome shuddering whilst braking.

So far they're an excellent choice for light off-roading.

Gordon,

what do you define as light off roading?

Will do, thanks.

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know if there is anyone is Aus selling these tires: "Goodyear Wrangler A-T Adventure with Kevlar" in size 255/60R19. From what I can see they appear to be a pretty good 19" with slightly better sidewall height and maybe a robust construction. At this size they might even correct the speedo error!

I think a few folk might have privately imported a few in here and there, be really good if they were an available choice though.

Cheers, Simmo

Goodyear Wrangler A-T Adventure with Kevlar" in size 255/60R19, available on tyre rack for under $240 each.....would be worth trying to get a set in my opinion. If I find a good deal I will post here.

I did try goodyear here in Aus......it seems they don't believe me they exist in that size !

Is there an alternate tyre in this size that could be purchased locally if needed? Might have to get 6 to be sure of having a full set and a spare if 1 gets destroyed.

Good point Graeme,

Hard enough getting 255/55/19 outback as it is....
