Default 285/35/24 On a LR4 - PLEASE HELP

Hi Guys. I just bought a 2011 LR4 HSE and I was wondering if anyone can help me decide if I am able to put on a 285/35/24 tire and wheel without any rubbing issues.

Does anyone have any knowledge of this exact size? Do the LR4s run the same as the full size Range Rovers?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Whats wrong, you didn't like the answer on the LRO.
Why the hell would you put 24" on an LR4, as alREADY MENTIONED, YOUR DIFFS WON'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE THEM AND ROVER WILL PROBABLY VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

You know you're ghetto when you try to run a 35 profile tire on a full size suv. Hope you enjoy bent wheels, horrible riding suspension, blown out tires, multiple chiropractor visits and no warranty on a brand of vehicle know for having costly electrical issues. Have fun with that buddy.

Now that you have come back to earth, go outside and take a measuring tape with you.Measure the diameter of your tire. The size you end up with is as big you wanna go. so whatever combination of wheels and tires you get, make sure its no bigger than what you measured. Otherwise yuo can and will void your warranty. Real quick. In addition, take of a wheel/tire combination and place it on your bathroon scale. If you can go lighter that whatever you measure, you are gonn be good to go. If you get something thas twice as heavy, no dice.

And for the love of sweet baby jesus, allah, budha, krishna, or whoever you pray to, stay away from lower profile tires if you wanna live life pain free. No air suspension in the world will smoothen out the ride from tire profiles that low.

You have been informed/warned/however you wanna take it.
