Hi, previous owner put 22" wheels on 06 LR3 SE and i have some stock 18s coming next week. Wanted to see what the best A/T tire without johnson rods would be. Thanks!

 

How much for the 22's?

Just kidding welcome to the forum.

For tires do you mean, biggest keeping everything stock or do you plan to do a lift with the GAP IID Tool or similar?

 

Hahaha, once i put the stock wheels on i am going to cross my fingers crossed and hopefully someone will pay for those things. For right now looking at keeping suspension stock.

 

 

My 275/65s don't really work without the (GAP or rod) lift.

 

265/60 is a good fit for 18" rims.

 

As much as I hate to disagree, I had 275/65 Goodyear Duratracs and they fit fine on my rig, including having to drive home on bump stops. I did have very minor rubbing at full lock right, but only when backing up. Certainly could be just enough variation in different tires. Also when I hit the bump stops the Duratracs were pretty much end of life.

 

There is a huge difference between limping home on worn out tires, and having a functional life with tires of that size. They will work just fine around town in normal height.... But not off-road. So, what's the point? Are we talking about the ability to go on trails? If not, why run a larger tire? The LR3 handles better on stock sized tires anyway....

 

Works fine for those of us with 2" coilovers too...

 

Well yeah, that would make sense....
