the LR4 19inch tire dilemma

[manoftaste]

Will do! Just ordered a full set of the TerrainContacts! I'll post a pic when they are on

Oh thats excellent! Cant wait to see the pictures and your review. What size did you end up ordering, I am planning to stick with the factory 255/55/19.

Sticking to the factory size too. Was telling the husband, while I'm excited about getting the truck tomorrow, I am almost more excited for the new tires! Haha

Ha.

And perfect! As I want to see how they look on the factory 19 inch size. Also, curios what your first impressions would be as far as the difference between the ride quality since you will be driving with the existing tires that come with your truck and then moving to the TerrainContact.

Looks like Continental did test their TerrainContact with LR4 as the truck shows up in the following promotional video from them a few times:

I have had the duratracs for about 2 years or so and love them. Slight increase in noise, but nothing to worry about. No issues with load rating and they have performed great in the Mojave and on a few ski trips. I would strongly recommend them....but, I wonder if the Duratracs are still an option. I too note that our size is not listed on the web page and last week, a friend of mine was unable to find any...and he tried several venues. He ended up getting the new Conny AT's. Interested to see how they work out...

Update: my local Goodyear guy won't sell me the Duratrac because of the speed rating. Says it is a Q but LR4 recommended is a V. Can anyone provide some insight?

Find a new guy.

Land Rover themselves uses the Duratrac on all their promotional "adventure" vehicles.
