Winter wheels and tyres

I'm not sure what brakes I've got. Someone at the local Rangie dealers recommended 18in disco 3 alloys would fit RRSP. I want to prepare for the winter , and the low profile tyres on RRSP were useless last winter. Any suggestions?

Yes look at your front brakes and i'm sure it will say BREMBO on the caliper, if it does then 18's won't fit, you have to go upto 19's

Hello robyoung
If you want decent tyres for winter, or all year, try Vredestein wintrac 4 extreme, they come in 275/40/20. Have excellent reviews, and dont look stupidly aggressive on the RRS.
Full set going on mine this year

So were you all pleased with your choice of winter tyres ?

I have been running BF Goodrich AT 2's and have been extremely pleased with them on my Disco, that I am going to put them on my RRS for this winter.
My usage has been all over Europe in the winter.
