Fair enough. I'm surprised the thread got to 4 pages, even with Craig's back passage and Stan's wall.

Changing wheels on the move is easier with a larger sidewall.

2016 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Santorini Black

Love a chunky sidewall

Liked the disco on 18"

But it makes a big difference when towing this and the 16' indespension trailer.

Towing this with the ff seems far more stable than with the disco on 18", havent tried it on the 19" on the disco but it did make a slight improvement on the ff going from 19-20". There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammerðŸ˜œðŸ˜œ

Will report back when I fit the 285/50 R20 in September

Sorry for the thread resurrection but I wondered if you ever got these fitted and if so what you think of them and this size in particular? I need some new tyres and these are the ones I'm interested in.

The best price I've found so far is £156, can anyone find better?

Thanks Kurt. I did see that thread but I couldn't see where anyone gave any feedback after buying the 285's.
