Called insurance, so hopefully they'll be able to find one soon..
It's not a bad chip, but there is a slight crack which I'm worries about spreading.
Love the look. But need more info!!!

Size?
Cost?
Noise?
Any good in wet (if you've had the chance)?

Thanks heaps

They're Cooper Zeon LTZ 275/55r20
I got them for $465ea fitted and balanced. Very pricey, but the cheapest I could find locally.

They're abit noisier than the stock Khumos. They make a slight hum.

Haven't tried them in the wet, but from the reviews I've read they are really good.

I had 285/60/18's on my Discovery 4.Did about 30K on them.
Great on wet & dry roads and surprisingly good off road.
As noons mentioned, they do hum a bit which takes a bit of getting used to, which is one of the reasons I went for the AT3's

Cheers, Craig.

I've used the w/screen repair kits you can get from auto shops for about $35, they work quite well, the chips and cracks I fixed can't even find them now.

did some re-search. and kind of failing at super cheap / auto barn!

what kids shads for the back windows are people using that fit the whole rear window in the WG/J's - this is if you are using them at least? the Mrs wants me to fit one up and we've bought two '4WD large size window' shades and they come up very small and a hugely tight fit.. not sure why they are listed as 4WD large window.... clearly i think not.

so if anyone know what we could be using??

Installed my new Whispbar Roof Racks. Got a roof basket for them as well - ready for an Easter Stradbroke Island trip. Looking at a good quality bag to go in the basket, the small MSA tourer pack is the perfect size but they're expensive.
