Replacement tyres
SNOW CHAINS
Wheel rims and tyres are matched to suit the
handling characteristics of the vehicle. For
safety, ALWAYS check that replacement tyres
comply with the original specification (see
Snow chains are designed for use on metalled
roads in extreme conditions only, and are not
recommended for off-road use. If it is
necessary to fit snow chains to your vehicle,
ALWAYS observe the following:
‘
WHEELS & TYRES’, page 203) and that the
load and speed ratings shown on the side wall
are the same as that of the original equipment.
Contact your Land Rover dealer for further
information or assistance.
•
Front wheels: Snow chains must not be
fitted to the front wheels unless the vehicle
is equipped with 215/75 R16 Pirelli
Scorpion S/T 107T tyres.
•
Rear wheels: Snow chains can be fitted to
the rear wheels of any vehicle, provided the
wheels and tyres conform to one of the
original equipment specifications listed in
the handbook (see ‘WHEELS & TYRES’,
page 203).
WARNING
ALWAYS use the same make and type of
radial-ply tyres front and rear. DO NOT use
cross-ply tyres, or interchange tyres from
front to rear.
Your vehicle is fitted with road wheels that
will NOT accept inner tubes. DO NOT fit a
tubed tyre.
•
Whether chains are to be fitted to the front
wheels only, or to all four wheels, then
ONLY Land Rover approved chains should
be used - these are designed for your
vehicle and will eliminate any risk of damage
to other components.
DO NOT replace wheels with any type other
than genuine Land Rover parts. Wheels and
tyres are designed for both off-road and
on-road use and have a very important
influence on vehicle handling. Alternative
wheels which do not meet original equipment
specifications should not be fitted.
•
•
Always adhere to the snow chain fitting and
retensioning instructions and the speed
limitations recommended for varying road
conditions. NEVER exceed 30 mph
(50
km/h).
Always have replacement wheels and tyres
balanced before use.
Avoid tyre damage by removing the chains a
soon as the road is free from snow.
For further information about approved snow
chains, consult your Land Rover dealer.
WARNING
DO NOT fit unapproved snow chains to the
front wheels - this could damage brake
components.
