I will start by mentioning I tried searching the forums for the answer to my question, but I was not able to locate the answer. We have a 2011 LR2 with stock tires 235/60r18. Will 255/55r18 or 255/60r18 fit on the stock wheel without rubbing the suspension? I did see some people are running 255/60r19 without issues, but I wasn't 100% sure it would work with the stock 18 wheels. Any help is appreciated.

 

Here's a review from someone who put 255s on there. Apparently they'll work but I'm due for some new tires and I'm going back and forth as to any issues related to suspension/diff/etc by changing sizes.

Review: General Grabber AT2 tires

 

A 255/55/R18 titre would actually be smaller than the one you have( 235/60/r18) the only real difference would be tread width, which would be 3/4" wider. The actual difference in height of the tire would be 2mm so this would be the best fit. The 255/60/R19 would have a wider tread width but it would be a taller tire; only by just under an inch (.91"). This would make a difference in speed. With the 255/60/R18's 35MPH would actually be 36.14 MPH with the smaller size ( 255/55/R18's the difference would be minimal.

I changed my tires on my 2008 LR2 HSE from the stock 235/55/19 to 255/55/19 without issue. You will be running a smaller rim so you will have no issues.
