It's new tire time and I'm trying to figure out what the best option is in the 255/60/18 size. I'm not a huge fan of the stock Goodyear Wrangler HP tires, so if anyone has some other suggestions, that would be great.

You are lucky you got the 18's. There are a lot more choices in the 18 than in the 19. If you give us a bit more info, we might be able to help steer you in the right direction. Plan to see any snow, do you off road it at all, are you into the low profile fad, do you want an all around tire or do you want dedicated sets for summer/winter/off road?

A number of people have switched up to a 285/65/18 for a better ride and traction. I would suggest you look at the Bridgestone tire line of Duellers, they offer them in 3 or 4 tread designs, they are quiet, last longer the the Good Year tire and are less money.

Has anyone put on 255 50 19 on their LR3 instead of the standard 255 55 19. What effect does the slightly lower profile have on the ride height? Thanks
