Discovery 3 (LR3) and Discovery 4 (LR4) Registry

My thoughts were 20x9.5 Black Stormers with Nitto's but I'd like to know the size. The stance looks great w/just enough sidewall on the tires. Especially with the non painted trim. Agree with ^ on the nudge bar and the Overland Decal. Actually has the hood blacked out with a Overland Logo as well. Pretty cool.
Bought a 2005 LR3 last week and took it to Moab
ive dreamed of owning a Land Rover for a long time (like at least 20 of my 28 year existence). Last week I bought my first, a 2005 LR3. This is my first time posting to expeditionportal but I've been a frequent reader for a while. Now that I actually own a vehicle worthy of off-road adventures, I felt like it was about time to join the conversation and share my adventures.
My wife, my little boy, and I packed up our things a couple days after we bought the vehicle and headed to Moab to test it out. A buddy of mine brought his family down too in a jeep. We drove fins n things, hell's revenge, and part of Kane Creek while we were down there and had a great time. It was my first time driving off road in Moab. The LR3 was quite impressive, as everybody here knows. My buddy couldn't believe how capable it was, even with almost bald street tires.
Here are a few photos of my LR from the trip:

Before the trip
Anyway, I'm excited to be here.

Well done! Great photos and looks like you had a good time.
GMR86 - Congrats on the LR3 and Welcome! Had a buddy of mine in Moab last week as well with his Jeep from NC. Told me he saw a Silver Rover at Fins and Things. Guessing it could have most likely been you......small world.

Finally purchased a Lr4 and just got it back home. Next thing is some cooper zeons then i have no idea after that. Ready to take this thing out west!
Cheers!
Its a special kit designed for the LR3, covers for all 8 windows, by TJM. Its great for reflecting the morning sun and keeps the moisture away when sleeping in the back.

Many thanks, I see myself going to chat with the TJM folks here in Abu Dhabi, having a dark green truck w/black interior is less than optimal at times in the summer!

Nice find! I like those a lot. Funny you speak of morning sun...is that for over warming issues? Your sig says Sweden where that would not be so much of an issue most of the year, but then you have a photo from what appears to be the great Swedish sand dunes National Park
About your rack, what brand is the rail mount? It looks like it could work with any rack. I have the Hannibal 2m with 2m side awning and 1.5m rear awning but have been wanting to mount it differently.

Believe it or not it actually can get quite hot here during the summer
