I think that the Discovery 2's had 235/75R16 tyres fitted for the G4 Challange, if this is correct is this size listed on the tyre placard?
If it is does anyone know how to get a G4 tyre placard, or can someone post a picture of theirs?
Thanks, Kelvin.

Hi Kelvin,
D2's had 225/75x16 tyres fitted. The size should be on the tyre as below.

Thanks Adrian, got my sizes wrong!
I was hoping they were 235/75R16, as in Australia you are only allowed to increase the tyre size diameter by a maximum of 50mm over the largest size fitted to that model.
235/75R16 would give a diameter of 759mm, and I want to fit 235/85R16 which are 806mm, which is 47mm bigger so ok.
But 225/75R16 are 744mm making the '85s' 62mm bigger, so not ok
:crying:
Unless anyone knows of any model D2 that had 235/75R16 (Or larger) fitted, and a tyre placard to prove it?
Regards,
Kelvin.
