i dn't get how they can justify saying we make thebest 4X4's in the world and then send all their cars from the factory with road tyres.a 4X4 is meant to be a car that can go anywhere any time not (oh i can't possibly ford that little stream because i don't have my all terrain tyres on). just yesterday after it snowed here in norwich me nd mymum were gliding along happily in our disco II with all terrains on and the number of disco's flailing aound on the ice cuz of road tyres was embarrasing

You can't tell from this video but those are the road tires slick as can be, and look what they do. It seems the people flailing around on the ice lack the necessary skill.

the problem are the tires.i also have street tires on my disco 2 and it is a fail to go through deep mud.look at my video.were stuck for 2 hours.upgrade to some a/t's

[xrayboy1052]

I don't see any problem here. The tires on the truck in this video are slick factory tires. Maybe you need to consider pilot error with your 2 hours stuck in the mud?

@davyjhones A sad fact is that very few people take their Land Rovers off road and that is probably the reason they come with road tires.

@TorqueTransfer all lr3's and lr4's come with lockers base model

@ropoly

Wrong.

2005-2009 Discovery 3/LR3 and 2010- Discovery 4/LR4 have open front & rear differentials standard, using 4-wheel ABS braking to transfer torque side-to-side. A infinitely-variable electronic locking center differential is standard, to transfer torque front-to-rear, and is controlled by Terrain Response, the driver cannot lock/unlock the center differential at will. An electronic locking rear differential is optional, and if equipped, is also controlled by Terrain Response.

@LandroverDefender110 A Defender won't get you there as luxurious as a LR3 though, I drive a LR3 as a daily driver because it's so solid in there cold, harsh Canadian Winters, when I want to go through some harsh 4x4 my Lr3 can't handle, I use a 110 Defender. But I'll tell you, my back hurts like crazy after driving the defender..

@davyjhones everything is gonna be alright.

With directional street tires the proper technique for muddy terrrain is to spin them fast which will clean out the lugs and abruptly let off the gas, this will let the cleaned out tread get a good bite, then you ease the throttle being careful not to spin the tires. I have Maxxis Marauders on my 04 Disco II and cannot wait until they wear out so I can get a proper AT.

IF you cant take the criticism then should not post a video.......

[sirtubemaster]

@xrayboy1052 boy you sure dont take comments very well! very defensive! peeps just making observations no need to get mean about it.....

[Thrillphene]

Very nice video. If you had proper tires on there you would've done MUCH better. I also have streets on my LR3 but have the '08 model :) Best SUV in the world IMO.
