Its time for a new set of tires for my d2,but i cant find any good A/T's that fit..
I was hoping for BFG's or nitto's,but i dont think they have the size i need,
what do you guys have on your disco's?

on my 98' Disco 1; I have Bridgestone Dueler AT 255/70R16 I have minor rubbing issue though but I think D2 can have wider tires then the D1

What size tire are you looking for? That will be the big issue.

I just bought 4 18 inch NITTOs for my 2001 Discovery II at the discounttiredirect store on eBAY. $490 total- that was $200 less than ANY other store, online or local! Delivered to my front door in just 2 days, the shippping was FREE. Local mounting, balancing and a 4 wheel alignment was $99.

I have BFG All terrain 255/70 R16 on my 00' dico and love them. I have not had any rubbing issues. This is a great tire, and highly recomend. Do be prepared to pay though. They are not cheap, but I believe you get what you pay for. I would suggest you shop every place you can think of and the internet to get the best price. Remember that if you find a better price you may be able to take it to the shop you prefer and they will sometimes match it. Good Luck!

Just put 265/65R18 Load Range E, BFG AT/KOs on my 05. Looks really good, same mpg, a little stiffer ride, and a small amount of noise. The negatives are far outweighed by the positives. Also did the spare and put it back in the under body storage. If I get the expected 70k plus miles, I'll use them again in 2 years!!


No rubbing in any mode or under any conditions I have seen. I have pushed the limits in normal, extended, and super extended modes.

Try discounttire.com ; They are usually cheaper than tirerack and generally have the same selection.
