My2012 FFRR Has Michelin Summer Tires?

Gentlemen,

It's been some time since I have been on the forum. We still have our 2006 RRS and have loved every moment of the experience. With that said, we purchased a 2012 Range Rover LUX and it too is proving to be pretty damn special. However, the FFRR came equipped with Michelin Latitude Diamaris tires. These tires are rated as "summer sport" which is a problem here in the Nevada Sierra's.

I cannot believe that the vehicle did not at least come with an "All Season" tire!? I have a call into Land Rover's customer service, they apologized for the inconvenience and stated they will get back to me.

I went on two other Land Rover sites and asked for some input or advice. All I heard were crickets! So, I'm reaching out to anyone on this more "lively" site.

Thanks in advance...

Unfortunately this is the norm it appears Sad

After 6 LR's with all season tyres I purchased a RRS and was shocked to discover it had summer tyres due to emphasis on performance rather than off road ability Rolling Eyes

For the last 2 years I swapped them in winter for 19" mud + snow all season tyres but this year I have sold them and fitted pirelli scorpion zero m+s all season tyres and wish I had done it 2 years ago Bow down

I wish you luck with LRCS but I got nowhere Evil or Very Mad Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
