I have a 96 Disco and need tires. My budget is kinda low which is making it difficult to find something I want. I am looking for an all terrain that could allow the occasional off road trip (light duty). I am at stock ride height.

Can someone look at these and let me know if they would work? The load index is 107 and they are 4 ply which seem low.

If anyone has any other ideas let me know. I am open to used but it seems difficult to find used A/T's in good shape.

 

Get these ones.

I almost bought those last year, I mean had the tires I really wanted not been on sale I would have bought these and probably will next time.

 

Jason,

I would definitely stay away from the one on EBAY. The Disco is a two ton vehicle, if you put a weak fourply tire on it, you will not be happy at all.

I like the ones that Spike refers, also love those TA K/O's on that website. I was looking for the K/O's locally and could not find any, I went with Bridgestone Dueler's when they were on sale at Sears.

I know the Sam's Warehouse in Monroeville has a good selection of tires at pretty good prices. There is a large tire dealer my son knows somewhere around Pittsburgh where he just got some used 22 inch tires for his Surburban really cheap. I was surprised he got a good set for less than 150 that had recently been replaced for looks alone. The guy wanted a different pattern, tread was fine.

 

I see that the T/A KO's have a C load range. I thought that I read that you really want a D or and E on a Discovery. Is this true? What brands come in a D load range?

No you do not need a "E" load rating.
My tires are only a 4 ply tire, I would have liked a 6 ply but I bought online and had no idea what load rating I was getting.
My tires handle well and are wearing great.
I VERY rarely drive faster than 65 mph and so far I have not had any issues with them getting to hot.
I have the Cooper Discoverer S/T

 

I have been looking at tires also recently, I like the hankooks spike recomended, but would also consider the general grabber A/T2, and the michelin LTX A/T2( A little more money but have great reveiws for milage, people getting 90,000 miles and more)

 

I've had these for almost two years & love 'em - 245/70/16 - stock suspension - very minor rub right turn to the lock over bumps.

I ran C load range on my Disco with no problem. Much better ride than D or E load range tires. Never had a problem with them off road either.

 

dunlop radial rover at's would be awesome for your app. my buddy runs them on his rrc and they rock both on and off road. he runs a really heavy rig too.... awesome tires
