Default Looking to get some 18's

Hi, looking to get 18's on my disco 2, I heard some good and bad things...i am looking for peoples opinion related to my question...
Basically I am driving on road, through all season here in Winnipeg, Hot as Hell and Cold as Hell... anyway I am a little worried about ride quality, what about handling, noise, tread life, I am thing of placing a 255, 60 or 65, 18" Tire to make it a little more comfortable...please the more comments the better...thanks...anyone want to trade for my 16"s...
Thanks all.

Stay away from the Good Year tires, get the tallest side wall you can and realize, 18's ere never made for comfort, longevity or economy.
I would point you toward the BridgeStone Dueller line of tires, especially their H rated directioal tire, great ride, good quiet tread design and seem to hold up better then most 18's.Good luck,
Mike
