I'm on cooper XST 285/50r20 with 116 load rating.
Great in the winter and acceptable for summer road use.
Piccy in my gallery.

Really missing the LTZ's.
Was driving on forest track today, but after overnight rain the D4 was sliding everywhere.
Got the stock Pirelli road tyres on and that wouldn't have happened with the LTZ's.
Hopefuly I'll have them back on by mid week ... fantastic tyre....... always on the road less travelled 🚧

IIRC Discodunc ran STT's then switched to ST's, GSLRO was running ST's on the last NYM run and they looked 8) .
Think I might stick the ST's on my 18" rims when my current AT2's wear out as I have been impressed by them, especially if the ST C's are available by then.

You should take the LTZ into the equation before you change Rich.
They do them in 18's also.

What size are you going to get for your D4? 274/45/20 Cooper Zeon Ltz?
Curious as I just bought some Redbourne Duke in Hyper black! Nitto or cooper is the next decision and a new set of tpms.

mine are 285/50/20.
there 'take offs' from my D3.
Just be aware of the offset on your rims if you go for this size.
275/45/20 is the safer option....... always on the road less travelled 🚧

I would love that size but as you said having a 2009 LR3 and redbournes have 32mm offset on a 9.5" wide rim I'm going to play it safe and either go for the Nitto terra grapplers in265/50/20 or the coopers 275/45/20.

Placed my order for the coopers, half the price compared to the 19" pirelli atr. Then in two years when I upgrade to an LR4 I can use the redbourne 20"
