They were fitted yesterday and look good.
Heine, they 100% spec and authorised by LRSA. I got six.
I have only driven on tar and did not sense any heavyness or drag which I had expected.
Perhaps at high speeds it may be different. I will report back.
Cornering is good and the D3 feels more stable than with the OE's.
This weekend i will take them offroad to the Atlantis Dunes ...

I am doing a trip from cape town to Rundu and Ruacana ,any ideas on tyre pressure for the tar , the tyre dealer and the LR dealer seem to have different ideas on the pressure 's i should use.
Cheers

I would go 2.2 - 2.4 bar depending on load

for the 18 inch rim I use
front: 2.3 bar unloaded /2.5 loaded
rear: 2.5 bar unloaded to 2.7 bar when loaded.
At2's show the load at the rear and it is better to keep the sidewalls from sticking out.
Tyger Wheel & Tyre says follow LR's spec!

Ironman, with the roofrack fully laden, I tend to believe the front pressure can be increased.
