Hello,
I just became an owner of my first RR, which happens to be the Sport 2005/6 one. She came with 275/40/R20 wheels and road tyres (tyres, T_Y_R_E_S, silly american auto correct) and I find them too harsh... It seems that she has never left the city roads. I will be looking at switching them to something like 235/65R17 or the 255/55R18 for a number of reasons:
1. Roads in the UK are crap, so the extra padding goes a looooong way for the suspension parts etc.
2. Ride comfort
3. Will like to take her down green lanes and maybe further, so chunkier and all terrain tyres will more suitable for the job.
Questions, please:
1. What size do you have on your RRS?
2. What tyres do you use/recommend (or to stay away from)?
3. Where do you tend to shop for tyres and parts in general? (I am doing some work on her and need to order parts (bushes, arms etc.)).
There are usual suspects for shopping, but thought to check if there are better/preferred places for the L320.
Many thanks!
