I'll take you guys word for it on the 17's - all of my experience is with even number tire sizes. My LR3 had 19" wheels on it when I bought it and there was crap offered back then (about 8 years ago) so I bought a set of 18" wheels for it. My old Land Rovers have 16's and the D5 has 20's.

Your reply is proof you have difficulty in comprehending the point of a topic. Your life must be very blissful LOL

All you have to do for a general idea is look at Tire Rack choices under BFG 17 vs 19. It's not even a contest.

HAHAHAHA. You come to the LR board to get your dose of complaints ? When I catch up on the Ih8mud sections it's really more about what someone did or is about to do rather than the endless problems or complaints on LR boards LOL What do I love about the LR3 in particular (over previous Discos I still have) ? The air suspension among other things. What do I hate about the modern LR's? The air suspension LOL because it can be a big PITA.

Haha, yep. I'm an idiot. ...and I know what you mean about the air suspension being the best/worst thing on the vehicle. Stuff like that makes it a labor of love, haha.

19" are available on the. 3.0 as a no-cost option, there's a drop-down that lets you select them.
18" are not available on the 3.0, likely because of the larger brakes fitted with the more powerful engine.

19's are absolutely offered, and they offer them with the off-road tire package that includes Wrangler DuraTracs.

Land Rover Said To Be Developing Budget Off-Roader And Luxury Defender | Carscoops

This came up in my news feed today. Maybe they will make a version that gets back to the more utilitarian roots of the Defender.

Well, that should placate the detractors. Or not.

At one time mentioned as built in India. Will basically be a smaller Defender body on the Evoque-like platform. Think Mini Countryman. A low-cost car-like 'Defender'. Engine size less than 2.0L. There is also thoughts to offer it across Jaguar and RR but with different features.

Sorry, just saw this. I'm based out of South Florida. Would've been a possibility if I still lived in Philly ?

Could not agree more. It's funny how gazing from afar in these threads the zealots and people that have some actual real wold experience and an easy logic to their arguments stand out from each other. The zealots are the same no matter what the Brand may be. But they always share the same complete utter lack of self realization that they are zealots. ?
