2007 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Stornoway Grey

The Sidewall Appreciation Thread

Here's a nice sidewall. Look how the rubber nicely fills the wheel arch.

Here's another one - lots of comfy rubber between you and the road.

This tyre has plenty of sidewall for a good tread depth.

This Jag is known for having one of the most comfortable rides, partly because of the sensible rubber fitted. Doesn't it look dignified?

Here's a Range Rover classic, built before bling and gangster rap. Comfortable, classy, functional and stylish. Who would spoil it by putting 24's on?

For those that don't appreciate sidewall - this is where you're heading.

She certainly looks built more for comfort than for speed.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

To be fair, I quite fancy a done up Defender like that, but it'd be no good on the motorway to work every day, and I don't want to run 2 cars again. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8
