Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The manufacturer's recommended tires (goodyear wrangler all weather m+s 255/55vr19) on landrover lr3 models are wearing prematurely by cupping and underlayment showing through on inside of tire tread where unevenly worn. mine did this at 25k miles, but i was lucky - after researching through various blogs i've found many needed all tires replaced even under 14k miles. this is a huge safety issue and i am currently working with my dealer to resolve my situation, but it should be made general knowledge to consumers - especially if it can prevent future accidents on the highways. please note that there are currently class action suits in michigan and california on this same issue. unsure if issue is just with lr3 models, or all of landrover vehicles. *jb
