largest tire with no lift
@ktm525 I'm running 285s and here are my thoughts: Ride Quality - I sometimes feel some of the smaller bumps on the road now. More grip when cornering. Braking slightly improved. When the tire shop had installed the tires they inflated to 44psi (above recommended pressures, I have no idea why... -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
Thanks for the info. I've actually read about this on another forum and my mechanic seems to believe this too might be the culprit re: engine noise. I haven't read of anyone having complete failure of either injectors or fuel pumps yet. Fingers crossed. Agreed on this. Add water pump to the... -

largest tire with no lift
@AJB_2016_Landmark – I have 285/50r20 G2s on my truck and can confirm that there is some slight rubbing at full lock. -

LR4 5.0 Chain Guides actual problem?
My vehicle has 78k miles. It does sound a little louder than other V8s than I've heard in the past. After the vehicle warms up, it sounds a little "diesel like" with a specific tapping sounds rather than chain slap. I'll also add that there's no chain slap on startup. Dealer claims that timing... -

Extended Warranty Options
I also would be interested in knowing what extended warranties others can vouch for. So far my research on this forum seems to indicate: Jaguar/LandRover CPO (can you still get this after well after factory warranty expiration?) Route66 (they only offer very basic coverage for JRL) Any others? -

What psi are you running your 285/50r20's. Ride Stiffness?
First, I just want to say how great the community members of this forum are. Two thumbs way up to all that have chimed in! @umbertob , thanks for the detail and for also double checking the tire load. I checked the tire pressure and as suspected, the tire shop inflated all tires above spec... -

What psi are you running your 285/50r20's. Ride Stiffness?
Hey @Julian Liu, Yes! I did grab them from you. Small world. I ended up buying a full size spare from a NorCal LR member and fitted a new G2 on it. The tire does make contact at full lock and makes a noticeable rubbing sound on the driver side. I’ve routed the exposed wiring loom up higher... -

What psi are you running your 285/50r20's. Ride Stiffness?
Thanks @Jomcool. This was my thinking exactly. Just wanted to double check as I’ve read of others who’ve maintained the same pressure all around after making the switch to A/T tires. I’ll double check the pressures this weekend and report back on ride quality. -

What psi are you running your 285/50r20's. Ride Stiffness?
I just picked up a set of Nitto Terra Grappler G2's this past weekend. I noticed that the LR4 tracks much better on the highway but there is now some added stiffness in the ride quality. Assuming that the shop inflated the tires too high. Curious to know what other members with this tire size... -

@AdventureTim thanks for confirming the wind noise and explaining your first hand experience with the FrontRunner rack! -

Prospeed Rack
@iSurfvilano ,thanks. One of the main reasons I'd want to go with the ProSpeed rack over Front Runner/Baja/Rhino is the lack of noise. I honestly don't know how much louder the other racks are but I would imagine that it's noticeable. With the ProSpeed rack, does the sloping fairing protrude... -

Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options
@jwest you're correct. I meant 265/65-18. I've been comparing so many tire sizes on https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc? that I've been going cross-eyed. -

Voltmeter / USB charge port install
@TCM75. I was looking to do this very thing. I have a 2011 LR4 and the console looks slightly different but any pictures/instructions would be appreciated. -

Prospeed Rack
@iSurfvilan, nice rig! I have a set of Thule Aerobars (looks like you used to have a set). Would you say that the Prospeed full roof rack is about as quiet or a little noisier than the Thule bars? How are you liking the Duratracs, btw? Did you get them in 255/55r19? -

Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options
Thanks @jwest! Agreed that 265/50r18 is the way to go. I do plan on doing this at some point in the future but just looking to get some better tires in the interim (the dealer I bought the truck from put some really cheap new all seasons on it) I found a really good deal locally on a set of... -

Need advice on LR4 20 inch wheel tire options
Hey all, I plan on making an upgrade soon to 285/50/20. Wondering what those who have this setup are sizing up their 19" spares to as a back up in case of a flat? Obviously, a full-size spare of the same size would be best, but does a 285/50/20 even fit in the spare wheel area?
