2003 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 V8 Zambezi Silver

Can I run 275/40/20 tyres on a 2003 vogue?

Are these ok to run on a Vogue or would they cause issue with the transfer case? I have come from owning a BMW x3 where the correct tyres were essential, not sure if the FFRR is as sensitive?
Thanks in advance

because of the width you would ideally want them on 9.5j wheels , and the speedo will be out btw..

loads on here re this, have a search. ... - .- -.

Not ideal but yes you can and as Stan says its better if they are on the wider RRS Wheels.

They are mounted on a set of stormers so they are 9.5j
I take it this would be fine then?

They will run OK - just make sure you tell your insurance company
