My 03 Disco is in need of new tires. Please give me your best recommendation for my following needs and let me know if you know a good place to order them from!

my needs:
-this truck is not my daily driver. i have a 84 bmw and a 07 toyota corola for that =)
-i do not do serious off roading, but would like to start doing more. my truck is stock.
-i do lots of camping and i throw my canoe up top.
-i live in minnesota and i drive it a lot in the winter.
-i currently have 18' scorpions on them.

Thanks!

 

My certified '03 Disco came with new Michelin 4x4 XPCs. They have been great on the Colorado snow/ice this winter and spring, and have been just fine on the highway as well. I like how they look on the vehicle as well - not boring light truck tiresand nottoo aggressive looking either.

 

nitto terra grappler is a good tire. it comes in the stock 255/55/18 size and does very well in snow.

 

Anyone have an opinion on the Bridgestone Dueler A/T REVOs?



I picked up a set and they look nice for an AT type tire. I'm waiting to mount them until after I've sorted out a bent track rod -- preferably upgrading some steering bits in the process so it might be a few weeks until I can spare some cash. I'll report back later, but if anyone has opinions let me know.

 

I really like both of those tires for 18" wheels. Check with Discount Tire and Costco for best pricing.

So if I am going to go on some camping trips that will take me off road this summer...and a long trip from Minnesota to the Land Rover Rally in Coloroado (where I will go on some trails in the mountains) you think that the Nitto Terra Grappler would be a good choice?

 

I put Yokohama Geolanders on my 03 about a month ago. They've got a mileage warranty and are very quiet. They've done great in all the rain we've had and have performed well in the wet grass/light mud I've been in.

They're cheaper than most other tires and have a mileage warranty - that's what sold me, that and all the great reviews they get.

 

I bought 2 sets of General Grabber G2 (I think thats the name) for both of our '03 & '04 Discoverys (16 & 18" wheels). They have aggressive tread but a re surprisingly quiet and good in the rain as well as the New England winter. Good price too.

 

Thanks for all of your replys...I really appreciate it. I will let you know what I decide to go with.

 

For what its worth I run Nokian WR's in the 18" More than the Michelin Syncro's but unbelievable on ice, snow and mud
