Ok just another Thread about tires. I just put on an old man emu suspension kit replacing my air shocks. I did the premium unit which gave me a 2 inch lift. The ride is fantastic just as good or better than with the air shocks. I just put on a set of BFGoodrich tires and went to size p 2 75 / 65 / 18. As you can see in the pictures there is plenty of clearance on there I picked up this set of tires for $450 is off the internet. They were take off from a tire shop. They are almost brand new with less than two thousand miles on them. I don't have much time on these new tires but I have to lot of time on the suspension and I am very very happy with it if you have any questions that you would like to ask about the suspension or what it takes to get it on your vehicle please feel free to contact me.

The lift makes it look like it needs bigger tires.

The 285 is as tall as I can go with out rubbing. If I turn it all the way right, I get a slight rub when backing up. The 10 ply add a bit of stiffness to the ride. Off road in sand it's awesome. Good on dry rock as well. Have yet to do snow or mud. Anyone else running ko2 and been through mud?

Why when I look up tires for my LR4 2015 with 19 rims on tire rack or even the copper and Goodyear sites I don’t see the Zeons or Durtracs listed as compatible with my LR4? I am assuming it is a rating issue but I am too under the weather right now to do the Rea search.

Need new tires and brakes/rotors so looking into options now. Thanks

Because when you do searches "by vehicle" on those sites, they only list fitments that are the STOCK size. What you'll want to do is determine the size you want, and then search "by size" on those sites, to find other options.
