Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 235-60-18 Land Rover Discovery Sport 20,000 miles October 22, 2026

Great tire for casual driving. Very good in the wet, almost as good as a winter tire in the snow. Great combination of grip levels in Poland's weather conditions (hot summers and mild winters with harsh, snowy and frosty days every now and then). In extremely snowy conditions with a very strong crosswind you could feel them struggle a bit at speeds above 70 mph, but other than that a solid, versatile tire.

Exceptional comfort levels, but a tad loud compared to either the Pirelli Scorpion or the Michelin Latitude Tour HP tires of the same size.

Yokohama iceGUARD G075 235-60-18 Land Rover Discovery Sport 10,000 miles January 7, 2026
Driven on these tires from the year 2022. On Nordic winter roads. Wear is good. Tires are a little noisy, that is why comfort is average. Snow grip is very good. Ice grip is ok. Wet grip is average as with many nordic winter tires. Used the tires for about 16000 km now and still about 6,5 mm tread left.

Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 235-55-19- Land Rover Discovery Sport 2,000 miles February 18, 2025
I fitted 4 of these tires to replace the Goodyear Wrangler tires on my 2.2 Discovery Sport as the Wrangler’s are no longer available. Despite the good reviews I find the Vector 4 Season gen 3 to be softer and the steering less positive, generating more understeer in cornering. They are I think also a little noisier on the motorway. I cannot comment on dry or wet grip as I ever had an issue with the wrangler tires. The other noticeable difference is that Vector 4-Season tires do not have a rim protector band built in making it easier to kerb your wheels. On balance I think the Wrangler All Weather tires were superior.

Continental Cross Contact LX Sport 235-55-19- Land Rover Discovery Sport 20,000 miles December 1, 2024
I bought my LR second-hand with these tryres on it back in early 2020, it’s now end of 2024, I’ve had no problems whatsoever, great tires, would definitely recommend from my personal experience. My tires do now need changing, I was going to find and buy there but looks like they’re old tires now so not easy to find. So after researching, I’m going to try out the Pirelli scorpions to see what they’re like.

Great all around tire, handles well in all conditions including snow. Just wore out a little to fast for me

Wet grip is very poor especially on roundabouts. Won't buy again.

General Grabber AT3 225-70-17- Land Rover Discovery Sport 1,000 miles December 5, 2022
Very pleased on dry roads, good grip on wet surfaces. Never had issues with aquaplaning, not too loud. On good surfaces very comfortable. On off road very grippy, on stones too. The bad side is on snow. Poor grip on compacted snow, specially on cornering. On ice is a disaster, even if this tire is rated 3PSF. Never again on snow, but for sure again for the rest.

Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season 245-45-20- Land Rover Discovery Sport September 30, 2022
These came on my recent purchase of a Discovery Sport, on the rear. They are fairly new and therefore plenty of tread. I've found them a hard compound and quite harsh and noisy. Grip in the dry seems OK - for what dry weather we've had in the last week or so. But to be honest the wet weather handling is quite shocking! Find I'm having to dither around corners and roundabouts in the wet to stop the back end sliding out and that really shouldn't happen. Last time I had that was when I bought a previous car which came with a cheap wheel a tire package on where you couldn't even steer it in the rain! It's less than 2 weeks of ownership and I'm looking at replacing the rears for something that will grip the road and be much safer, Would not recommend these at all.

Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons Gen 2 SUV 235-55-19- Land Rover Discovery Sport 30,000 miles September 22, 2022
A "no dramas" tire, good comfort and low noise, very good wet grip and aquaplaning resistance. Good dry grip, heavy dry braking lacks positivity (i.e., you always stop where you expect, but pedal feel is poor). Wear is excellent, almost 30k miles and only just dropping to around 4mm (rotated once at 20k miles) which means they will be changed before this winter. Some tread damage during this year's heatwaves with small chunks missing near sipes, however this might be tracking related as well as heat build-up. Nothing to cause concern.

Snow performance is on par for an all season, good traction and braking with some hesitancy on turning. Can feel like its squirming on slush but that is consistent on ever all season or full winter I have driven. Very much more snow and ice performance than is really needed for the UK, unless you beach your car on a drift, you will always get home. (Tested in the Pennines on steep hills)
