Help with Wheels and Tyres for my D4

Hi All,

My D4 currently has 19 inch 10 spoke alloys with 255/55/19s and I would like a more rugged look so I am considering changing to 18 Inch with AT Tyres.

Also has anyone got a picture of a D4 with 19 inch wheels and AT Tyres as if it looks good enough I may consider just having the wheels powder coated black and putting a more rugged looking tyre on them.

I am just considering my options and if I have to save up for 18's then I will but the ones I am looking at are either the Tuffant Kimberleys or the EVO Corse DakarZero which are £2400 and £2520 respectively with BFG KO2's.

Also which AT tyres would you recommend for mainly road use?

Thanks

I run BFG A/T on the D2 & whilst not mud pluggas they have a 'presence' & have worked well on & off road on this car as well as previously on 110 & 90 Defenders I've owned.

Alternatives might be Falken Wildpeak or General AT3, or the good old Duratrac?

I had Compomotive PD1881’s on my D4’s.

I stayed with the standard size 255-60-18 tyre. Which suited my needs well, shod with Pirelli ATR’s. Which may still be available in 18”.
I’d probably go with AT+, but we all have different requirements. I want a tyre that’s behaves well on road and is better than a road tyre off road.

I have GG AT3’s on my FFRR and no complaints about them but I am wary about their sidewall strength.

Should add, whilst there’s no dispute over the quality of Compomotive, they supply Bowler after all, there are now cheaper 18” alternatives for the D4.

I am on 19" wheels and have found the Yokohama Geolandar A/T (G015) to be an excellent tyre.

Have a look at these two threads:-

Thanks for the help all.

I had a look at the compomotives but prefer either the Tuffant Kimberleys or the EVO Corse or maybe even the Tuffant Pilbara Steel wheels. I really like the Simpsons the best but they do not seem to be available any more.
