Range Rover Sport in Sand Dunes with Stock tires???????

Anyone have any experience taking their RRS in some serious sand? How do the stock tires perform?

You might want to ask this on the D3 site, I know some of the Aussie guys drive on sand.

Yes I took it three weeks back. with stock tires and stormer wheels ,see my gallery
I just reduce the tire pressure to 20 psi and it was very easy to go through...even with full pressure I could manege..u know low profile tires are wide so it give u good weight distribution..Te be honest I try to make RRS stuck and I could not Laughing ..comparing RRS with my wrangler YJ I guess the only different I feel was the weight and plastic bambers i was worried to break them in RRS...in general I was impressed of RRS off-road capability

You can lower your pressure down to 16-18psi, and it will perform great... We have been several times and never been stuck. Make sure you select your 'sand mode' in special programs otherwise the traction control will be going mental!
