It's the Prospeed rack. You do need the short rails to install the rack but I love this rack for the lack of noise it generates and the way it looks. I had the Frontrunner rack before this and do think the FR rack is a bit more functional especially since I had a lot of their accessories. However, the FR rack is also very loud to me even with their wind screen installed and since the LR is also my daily driver, the noise issue bothered me plenty.

Do you have anything that allows you to attach skis to the prospeed?

I live in a 75-80mph zone(which means 90 is not out of the question) and my garage is not very tall.
Those two things make low profile and low wind noise my most desired attributes.

I'd love to see anymore pics you might have. Did you have to buy the short rails and if so, where did you acquire them?

I don't have a close up pic but here is another angle. I don't think they sell specific ski holders but it has plenty of mounting points on the rack floor for you to get creative.

Can you purchase the ProSpeed rack in the states? I've only been able to find vendors out of the UK.

On Friday, I will have my rover shop install the taillight guards while it's in for an alignment. The only reason I'm not doing it myself is because I don't have the "grommet press" tool.

Out of curiosity...why the 285 Nittos vs the 265? Stock being 255. I've been thinking of picking up a pair this year, but I was expecting to get the 265's...unless there's a reason 285 is better :)

Wider contact patch, trade off for the lower sidewall. The main reason for deflating tires when off roading is to increase the contact patch to increase weight distribution, and "floatation". With the lower profile tire, airing down becomes a significant issue. Going with a wider tire, means you don't have to air down, but still get the benefit of a wider contact patch.
Plus it looks so much cooler [emoji6]

Jaguardoc504 can you post a pic of the tiers? Are these on 18 or 19 inch rims?
I am running a 20" wheels for now.
I am going to switch to 18" for my summer/AT tires, and 20" for my snow only in the near future.
I eill get a picture up soon.

I just got this two days ago. 83,000 miles one owner all records from Land Rover dealer... i think i paid too much at 26,000.00 do you think that was a ripoff or good price? The stereo is an antique im trying to figure out who is stereo manufacturer to petition for updated firmware for bluetooth. I know you can play imessage files snd get audio so you shoukd be able to hack the code or change some software. Cant find after market stereo :(
