Tyres on the 19" HSE Wheels

What brand of tyres does everyone have on their HSE's? (as in, from the factory)

TB, Can you tell us what they are currently leaving the factory with? Currently: Carbon Black 535d
RIP: RRSTDV6 HSE & DISCO3 HSE

Came from the factory with Wranglers... I now have Wranglers at the back (and on the spare) and Contis up front.

United States 2006 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Giverney Green

The car came with Continental Cross Contact UHP's a summer high performance tire. The brochure and owners manual specifically states that the RRS is OE (equiped) with all season tires, sorry tyres. I've since intalled Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snow tires for the winter. I'll reinstall the Conti's this summer.

United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Arctic Frost

As posted above, the 19 inch wheel normally comes wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler 'directional' tyres. Or as a no cost option, you can order Continental Contacts instead.

I think some of the early build vehicles were also available with Pirelli's but I don't think we fit those anymore.

Great minds think alike Razz I have exactly the same on mine too. Conti Cross UHP for summer, Scorpions for winter. Have to say, the Scorpions are a lot better in the deep snow and help you to avoid the use of snow chains. (As I put in a previous post, I have seen BMW X5s and a Porsche Cayenne with snow chains on as they had summer tyres on.
We have had so much snow here that the police in Austria have been stopping every single car with summer tyres on (including 4wd) and refusing to let them go any further until the roads are cleared (which could take a couple of days)
