    Hi,

    I can't help you much with tyres but 18s may not be completely out of the question for you depending on how much off road you want to do.

    See:
    18" rims for D4/RRS from GOE"

    Gordon is a member here, and I am sure would be happy to offer some advice.

    Hi Beavis,
    There are quite a few threads on this subject if you do a search.
    Yes you can get 18" rims to suit your larger brakes, but only through Gordon (Green Oval Experience).
    Got them for mine through Gordon, as I also have the larger brakes on my D4.
    Very happy. Has allowed me to choose from a larger range of tyres.

    Cheers, Craig

    General Grabbers are a good option for your 19's. Ive been running them for the last 12 months. They look purposeful, perform well in the dirt and not too noisy on road. There are a few threads on the forum on the GG's.

    The new Cooper LTZ Zeon's in 255/55R19 are probably the best value 19" AT currently available in Australia. Stronger sidewalls than the GG's and cheaper than the Pirelli ATR's.

    Of course, in 18" the choices are a level above .....

    Cheers,

    Gordon

    Probably a stupid Q, but do your 18's fit over the factory Bremo's as they are bigger than he 3.0ltr brake package?
    I had a client ask yesterday & I wasn't sure.

    Hi Beavis

    I have a RRS TDV8 and was looking at 18" Compomotives from Green Oval.
    However, to fit over Brembos, apparently one has to reverse the mass dampers on the brakes which, being a cautious soul, I didn't want to do. 19'' rims are/were as scarce as hen's teeth. and I was quoted obscene figures for a set of 4 (3 damaged) courtesy of a well known LR specialist in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne..... So in the end I fitted GGs. However, Cooper Zeons are now available in 255/19s and I will be buying a set of them since they seem a better tyre than the GG's. Having said all that, I have taken my car through some ****ty terrain on road tyres without any issues whatsoever.
