I went through one of their local dealers here in the US. Best thing to do is email Urban in the UK and they will connect you to your local dealer who can provide a quote on the wheels.

Shipping of the Urban products takes a while. So far I’ve been waiting for my parts for about 5 weeks. They are finally due to arrive next week.

Did you consider 285/45R22’s in the Coopers? There’s a Defender owner in the UK that fitted them on the OEM 22’s (5098’s) without any rubbing issues at any height. That was my plan to swap out the no-season Conti’s.

I did not! I just keep to the OEM tire specs anymore. But if you can fit them and there was no issues go for it! The cooper looks strong on the 5098’s IMO!!

Thanks for the info! And agreed, it’s a great looking and functioning tire, and goes well on the 5098’s.

This tire is a huge upgrade from the original Continentals that came with the Defender. Great traction with dry and wet conditions as well as the recent snow that we have been getting here in western PA.

Enjoy!

How have the cooper tires been since you got them over a year ago? How are they in the rain and the road noise? Are your wheels 20s and what size are your tires? Also are those wheels arches added on? I have a 2024 Dynamix SE all black like yours and I am new to these types of tires.
