RE: Tire recommendations
Bait,
Have you had problems with the Pirelli's? I have had Scorpions as my road wheels the last 40K miles. They seemed better (and half the price) of the XPC 4x4's that are stock to the 95 disco.
I will probably replace them with the Michellin Cross Terrain SUV's next go around, as I have them on my wife's Yukon XL and the Pirelli's are hard to get.
For off-road wheels I have used the Goodyear MTR's with good luck.

RE: Tire recommendations
The Michellin Cross Terrain in my opinion is the best SUV tire in the world. I've had them on other vehicles and I just love em'.They cost a little more but they are worth every penny.Just last Monday I put a set on my Discovery and it feels like a whole new vehicle. The Goodyear's that came off went right into the dumpster,even though they still had lots of tread.(scalloped).The ride is like silk,and all that road noise I was getting with the "Woodyear's" is now gone. I chose the blackwall version instead of the raised white letter though.White letter tires just don't suit a Discovery in my opinion,besides they scream STEAL ME!
