    Tyre - 255/60/R19 vs 235/65/R19

    Hi everyone,

    Just a quick question - as per the door card, my 2018 Disco5 has only one 19" tyre option, and that's 255/60/R19 on the factory fitted 19" rims. Now, it's really hard to find anything in 19" and I'm just after some good quality road tyres with low noise and good performance in wet conditions. I was checking different comparable tyre sizes and on this website (Tyre Size Calculator) I've found that 235/65/R19 is almost a perfect replacement for my tyres, except the width is slightly less (9.3" vs 10"). Is this going to be a problem if I get 235/65 instead of 255/60 tyres? The car is under extended warranty - will the warranty be void if I go for the 235/65s? Please help!

    The Scorpion Verde All seasons 255/60R19 is reportedly a good highway tyre with a long life for the D5, L494 RRS and L405 RR.
