Hey gang, I'm not yet a LR owner, I'm shopping around for one now. I have notice on two different trucks, when making a tight turn (either direction) at a slow but moderate speed, like pulling out of a parking lot < 10 mph, it feels link bind or wheel scrubbing.

The first one I thought there was something wrong, but I just drove a different one and it seems to do it too.
Is this a feature or is something wrong?

Pics for fun

 

larger tires will rub on the radius arms (or bumper/quarterpanel pending sizes and if turn is in a large dip for instance) can change steering stops to avoid it but yes it will happen every time on the 16" alloys with bigger tires. Looks like a nice clean disco!

 

Thanks, this makes a lot of sense!

 

is it a rubbing sound or a squeak from the tyres on the ground? I have noticed many tyres on SUVs making noise when taking tight turns in parking lots. In that case it is a matter of scrub radius differing between the front wheels.
