Default Changing rim size from 19 to 18
What do I need to do to insure that I don't mess up the mileage computer? Get a particular tire size? Should I stick with the same width tire? I have a 2006 LR3 HSE. Thanks!

18" rims were a option for that year so just stick with the stock size tires and you will be fine. That should be 255/60-18 if memory serves. Also keep in mind while the lug pattern is the same you cannot use Discovery 2 wheels on the LR3 due to the smaller center hub bore.

You are spot on, the 255/60/18 will not cause a speedo issue.

Can't the ecu be reprogrammed/flashed to run different wheel/tire sizes like any other ob2 or 3 vehicle?
