AT tires that ill fit my LR3 with no lift kit in all modes
Im looking to invest in some AT tires that will fit my 05 LR3 SE with no lift kit. Im currently rocking stock 18 in. wheels. Thanks.
this is with stock suspension? I eyed some cooper Ltz but as skeptical i as going to rub. Thats my goal is to rock stock suspension ith atleast AT 31''.
I have Nokian Rotiiva AT on my 06.
Good chunky tread, no noticeable increase in road noise and MPG didnt take a hit. They also have the snow/ice snowflake on them and I can attest to that being well earned. They've gone through 2 New England winters so far with zero slips including well over a foot on unplowed streets (including hills).
I have them in 265/60r18 and have had zero rub both vertically and turning (stock height).
Plus they're inexpensive at ~$750 for 4

Might want to double-check that size, @Blackngold77....probably 285/60 or 275/65 and not 285/65s. 285/65s would be 32.6" outside diameter, which is what my Coopers are, but mine are 275s so they are narrower. At 32.6" OD and the wider 285 size, there would be rubbing for sure. On the other hand, 285/60 is a common size, as Abran mentions he is running (above). You may be right and I would stand corrected and surprised.
Also noteworthy: if you are running 275/65R18s you can get away with no lift around town (not in Access Height though) but on a trail you will need some form of lift to avoid rubbing. Smart move is just to have an IIDTool and use that at the trail head. This is probably true of the 285/60s as well, though it's been a long time since I've run that size so I don't remember the rubbing issues, if any, while articulating.
