Background Information on Land Rover

Land Rover works with leading manufacturers to make sure your tyres meet the very highest standards of quality and safety and are designed to fit and perform perfectly with the car.

Many motorists choose to retain the original tyre choice when replacing worn tyres. etyres can provide impartial advice about a number of suitable replacement tyres depending on your model and driving preferences.

The first Land Rover made its debut in 1948, six decades on it is estimated that two-thirds of all the vehicles made by the brand are still at work – many of them in some of the most extreme conditions and inhospitable places on earth.

The Land Rover originated as one specific vehicle and developed into a marque encompassing a range of four-wheel drive models, including the Defender, Discovery, Freelander, Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

Land Rover is owned by Indian company Tata Motors, forming part of its Jaguar Land Rover subsidiary and is the second-oldest four-wheel drive car brand in the world, after Jeep.

The vehicle manufacturer is developing initiatives such as e_Terrain Technologies to improve the environmental performance of its vehicles by reducing carbon emissions as well as investing in sustainable manufacturing and carbon offsetting.

Changing Land Rover Tyres

Changing Land Rover Car Tyres should require 3 primary choices:

• The overall quality of the tyre (durability, wear, ratings, cost) desired for the Land Rover
• The speed rating that the Land Rover Tyres should have depending upon the driver's average and occasional "fastest-driven" speed
• Deciding if local and/or regional weather patterns merit keeping two sets of tyres for dry vs. wet road conditions

Further, if an owner wishes to put tyres on different sized wheels for the Land Rover, a careful decision about what size tyres will be valid for that Land Rover is required. If, for example, a larger wheel size is desired, then the profile (height) and/or the width must be reduced to avoid damaging the drive train. A 195/65/15 tyre for that Land Rover, for instance, on a 17" rim, could legitimately become a 165/65 (narrower) or a 195/55 (shorter) but could not stay a 195/65 as before. A handy calculator for changing tyre sizes can be found here.

All tyres for any Land Rover vehicle should be fitted using the proper torque, according to the manufacturer's specifications. Torque is the amount of pressure used to tighten the wheel nuts. For tyres that are fitted to the following Land Rover models, the torque settings are listed. Also, the recommended air pressure to put into tyres for Land Rover models is listed. Further, the alternate tyre size for Land Rover models.

Note: Further information on tyres and car batteries for Land Rover vehicles may be found at the manufacturer's own website... Land Rover
