Tyres and replacement of...

Has anyone had to replace their tyres yet due to wearing out and if so at what mileage.

I am hoping to get 25K out of mine, I'm on 15K at the moment. L319 D4 HSE

15k? I just had to replace my 19" at 13,300 but could have gone to 14,000!

Interesting - as most of you out there have upgraded one form or another to a 20" wheel set up. So, what tyres are you all considering when it comes to changeover time ?

Can you get the F1's in a 20" size?

I will probably swap like for like as I have had no issues with the Continentals. L319 D4 HSE

RRUK I think so the F1's seem to grip the road better and are extremely comfortable RRS TDV6 HSE BUCKINGHAM BLUE BLACK LEATHER INTERIOR RHODIUM TASMOD SILLS PARROT 3000 EVOLUTION WHITE SIDE REPEATERS RRPORT.CO.UK BROLLY & STICKER

Belgium 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

I've been told the Stormers I've ordered from the dearler will be fitted with F1's - so clearly they come in 20" sizes. He told me that the F1's are preferred in Belgium, particularly on the wet....and we get a lot of wet.

I had F1's on a chip tuned Saab cabrio a few years back (mounted on beautiful BBS wheels) - they were awesome and handled the power coming off the front wheels much better than the factory Michelin's. Unfortunately, lost the tyres, the wheels and my spleen eight months later when some Spaniard rammed me while I was making a left turn. Still, a fan of F1's...but don't vacation in Spain anymore... 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

Tire replacement

Just replaced my conti's at 30k, had lots of cuts and slits and very noisy, but had some tread left. Had them replaced with the new Michelin Latitudes and also had to have two of my wheels straightened because they were bent. This was definitely a cause of my wheel shimmy that the dealer could never correct. They ride great and are very quiet and handle superb, but at $250 us my cost they should ride nice,,,,

Replaced my Conti’s for Pirelli’s at 16k miles.

Purchased 5 tyres and wheels (brand new standard 19” RRS originals) for £675, significantly less than just 4 tyres.

Also, saved on repairing a puncture.

Have now sold my old wheels for £250! Not a bad deal.
