    285 45 22 General Grabber AT

    Hi everyone, I am currently looking for a set of new tyres for my D5 and wondered if anyone with 22" alloys had fitted 285 45 22s. If so were there any problems or rubbing

    I can get the standard 285 40 22 size but would prefer to go up a bit in sidewall size if they fit with no issues

    Prices are the same for both sizes

    What did you discover? I'd also like a bit more sidewall, the alternative I've considered is downgrading the alloys to 20".

    I wonder, if you did install larger tyres how do you reconfigure the speedo etc? My Ottofix D1 has a service function 'change wheel size' but on this car it says 'not supported'.

    20" Defender rims work quite well, and there are more cheap options available than the limited Discovery market.

    I agree! I've just put Defender 20's on my D300. I really like the look, the feel & the price of them too!

    Ended up getting 285 45 22 yokohama geolander a/ts. Tyre place couldn't get a set of 4 grabbers anytime soon so opted for the yokohamas. £70 per tyre cheaper too 😎
