Rear two sunroofs - purple?
Mine is weird. When I am in the car (outside in the sun) their is definitely a purple tint... Of all things my 4 year old noticed it. She said daddy, can we get purple glass (her favorite color) on my windows in my room just like in the Land Rover.... !! My wife said I almost crapped myself... -

Rear two sunroofs - purple?
Does everyone else have a purple tint on the inside of their back two sunroofs? ?? I know, dumb question, but it seems *****, and I am hoping it is just a protective film I can pull off !! -

I ordered them through Tirerak and then had them installed at a Goodyear dealer. -

My remote doesn´t work
Thor, why is that key not covered under warrenty. From my point of view, you would think it is an integral part in actually opening the car (unless you have to keep using the manual entry feature under the door handle), as well as, using the safety features that the key comes with and LR... -

Avon Tyre update
No no rubbing,,, even in access mode going over speed bumps in the parking garage and on the sharp turns it is ok (a good test). Those damn square rims!! I am not sure what is funnier, me hearing from the region service manager that my vibration is from trapped resonance in the air... -

Avon Tyre update
Sorry, should have been specific. Rim size is the stock 18 inch rim. The tire size is up one, a 265 60 18. Just wanted a stock replacement tire as my wife does a majority of the driving and did not want to get too big or aggresive with the tread pattern. I wanted to get the goodyears off of... -

Avon Tyre update

I checked the occillating dampers, mine are not rubber, but definitelly a metal composite of some sort, seam they would be heavy as hell. They do sway front to back an inch or so. Are yours rubber nwoods? Oh yeah, with the exepdition rack installed now. I will start taking bets on how... -

thanks for the replies, I am going to look at both tomorrow. I was wondering what those two things in the back were when I was checking my receiver hook up. Also will look into the sway bar, but not sure if that would cause such a rythmic wobble like the one I am getting. Funny, I had the... -

Not a wander, but a wobble. The rut-grab has gone away with the new tires, but the wobble is still there. It is felt through the car and mostly in the gas peddle. If that makes any sense. For craps and giggles, I put it in neutral today on the highway to see if it would go away (kind of... -

Well, had the Avon's put on today. 265/60/18 is the sixe I went with. A little more size to them, and the ride is pretty good, much better than the Goodyears. Little stiffer response, but bumps are more evident (shich is fine, as I like bumps !! :)).. Still have th minor wobble in the car... -

what I want to do is move up to a bigger size with these. Say to 265's for a slightly larger patch, but can this create a problem with side wall flex? -

Not many people mention the Avon Tires. I want to replace my Goodyears now and do not want to spend all that much. The Avon tires seem pretty good and are not that expensive. Any reasons for or against?
