Land Rover 130 Defender Tyres
The Defender 130 from Land Rover is the long-wheelbase option in the Defender lineup. It provides extra space for either passengers or cargo while giving the flexibility to be used for light, long-distance towing, and for country use. It offers the versatility to be used for the daily commute. The 130 Defender will benefit from the comfort and stability of tyres that will provide good wet grip and braking, and steer well with low noise to help the Defender remain composed over the varied road types found throughout the UK. Suitable load index and speed rating tyres assist Land Rover in supporting the 130 Defender's carrying and driving needs.
The Land Rover 130 Defender tyre size will be different depending on the generation, trim level, engine or factory fitted wheel option. The Defender name is used on a lot of different models, so this will reflect on the varied Defender versions. The proper Defender 130 size with the proper load index and speed rating is defined from either the existing tyre sidewall, the vehicle's handbook or vehicle registration. Comfort and safety is best supported when that specification is matched.
Tyres.co.uk allows Defender 130 owners the ability to filter tyres and get them fitted locally at the most convenient time based on preference for the tyres’ brand, price and performance.
BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2
Tyre review for BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 245/70R16
Better grip on the road.

Tyre review for BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 255/70R16
Great. My previous tyres constantly received punctures but since I have not had a single one, and they look great. I just got a new truck and I am looking forward to have these tyres on it again.

Tyre review for BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 255/70R16
These tyres are amazing, and I feel confident driving in any weather conditions. I live in a cottage on a remote Scottish hillside and these tyres always get me home, snow, ice, mud and heavy rain are no problem for these tyres. I've had them for a year and they show no signs of wear.

Tyre review for BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 235/70R16
Works well in the rain, however, can be unreliable in colder temperatures because the rubber will harden which lessens grip.

Tyre review for BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 235/70R16
I have experienced no problems with these tyres in dry, wet, snowy, or muddy off-road scenarios. They're also surprisingly quieter than tyres from other brands I have used.

Tyre review for Goodyear Wrangler AT/ADV 235/85R16
It is definitely worth it as they grip snow and ice much thicker.

The fitting process was flawless. The guys at the garage were great, and thoroughly explained everything to me and didn't rush me at all. It's nice to see some great customer service these days.

Good performance all-round.

Doesn't make a lot of noise, so it's perfect for use in the rain, mud, and snow.

Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001
Tyre review for Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001 255/70R16
Dependable performance under both dry and wet conditions, as usual.
Reiss Ridge
Tyre review for Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001 215/80R15
Excels under all conditions. Very pleased with how you all cope with the winter snow.
Aine Grimshaw
Tyre review for Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001 215/80R15
They seem good but may need a more aggressive tread for really muddy conditions.
Penelope E.
Tyre review for Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001 255/70R18
There have no issues with the drive and grip. The noise is not loud and handling muddy fields and bumpy roads is also no problem. They have good grip on wet tarmac as well. I have no experience with snow driving as there isn't any. I am happy with these tyres.
Liberty Macfarlane
Tyre review for Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001 255/70R18
These tyres manage rain well, providing good traction on muddy, gravel, and tarmac paths, and they are reasonably noisy on tarmac.

Tyres.co.uk has several options for 130 Defender factory alloy wheels. They have BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 (120/116S) and Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac RT (120S) in 235/85 R16 available. When placing your order, check the type of wheel, load rating, and speed rating on the label next to your registration.
The correct tyre size for your Defender will be on the tyre pressure and loading label on the right-hand B-pillar just below the driver's door. Alternatively, it will be on the adjacent door edge of some Defender derivatives. The placard will also give you the approved size, load, and speed rating, and the wall of the tyre will tell you what size has been fitted.
Defender 130s do not always require all four tyres to be replaced at the same time. Land Rover advises that with all wheel drive vehicles, a radial tyre needs to be fitted in a matching set on all four wheels. According to the UK standards for tyre safety, when two tyres are being changed, the new tyres should be fitted to the rear axle.
