Lr2 (3 questions

[WarrenJackson]

I just purchased my first Land Rover. I bought a 2010 LR2. I have two questions, as I am new to this brand. 1) I was pressured into purchasing tire insurance, as I was told that the tires on these vehicles are very poorly made and pop very easily. I just cant make sense of this as It was my impression that these vehicles were designed for off road driving environments, etc and should of most vehicles be the least prone to tire issues on a normal road... Do you have any input from past experience, It is still not too late for me to cancel this insurance for a refund but just wanted to get your experienced advice regarding this matter. 2) Every time I turn the car on and shift the car into drive and hit the gas pedal i feel what seems to be a shifting vibration in the gas pedal. Is this normal for the LR2? I just want to make sure there is not a defect with the vehicle. 3) I want to purchase all weather floor mats, any idea how much they are from Land Rover and also what stores sell "alternative" lower cost floor mats for the LR2 that fit well? Thank you so much in advanced for your valued input, I really appreciate it!

as long as the tire insurance covers the cost of repairing or replacing rims its a good investment.

two, normal
three try the internet and see what shakes. OEM is the way to go cause it fits the first time and you wont have to worry about going toyota one day and smashing into something.

I notice this as well. I also feel it when you start the drive and the doors automatically lock. I believe this is normal.
