The D3 , have added a few bits and pieces over the last year when i was out in germany. Everytime i went to the local stealer over there the D3 came home with something else on it. Much to the annoyance of Swmbo.POT NOODLE NAVIGATION CHALLENGE 2010 WINNER

Surely, as a German trained in tyre technology, she knows that residents of Cumbria must have M+S grade tyres after September 2006 D3 finally swapped for a 2016 D4 Graphite in Graphite grey. No mods
- sounds good anyone into making pin badges. ?

Recently I have always used the local tyre fitting centre - You know the ones in dancing overalls.
To be fair to them they got me my BFG MT's for the 90 at the cheapest price and that included fitting and i have used them for swapping other tyres around on the old 90,
HOWEVER
Asked to get me prices for
Goodyear MTR's 19" for disco - Nope - there is a massive back order - looking like Mid Jan - Feb
Pirelli ATR - - not showing on our system AH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So thought I's ask for replacement BFG, 255x85x16 - They are adament they dont make them in that size - funny my mate is running with these on - Oh they have just really gone down hill
Looks like a call to AJS but really want another set Rims as well
The MTR's do look fab on the discoTDV6 HSE - Silver

Border Rover,
Show here a picture off a D3 without MTR's and with MTR's I am sure that she will approve the MTR's. Tell me one thing about Germans: They love the looks off their cars and do a lot to improve that, so she will understand.
I work a lot in Southern Germany and there are more pimmed cars then here in The Netherlands.
I did the same thing with my wife. She didn't like the looks off a standard D3 (after my Camel) so I thought S t. And then I showed here a picture off the G4. Now I have one.
Then I needed a set of rims for winter tyres. I found a second hand set but they had MTR's on it. So winter tyres will come after my HP's are worn. Roel

Andy I've been trying to PM you but the message is getting stuck in the outbox for some reason. I'm thinking about possibly upgrading to MT/Rs and prices in Dubai are quite high - would be very interested in getting a quote from you for a set of 5 x Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 255/55-19 shipped to Dubai, UAE, to see if this option makes more sense for me. Thanks!

Hernan1304,
Will look into it for you, may be very expensive though.
