205 are quite small on a discovery, 235/70 certainly look better

Do you want road, AT or MT?
TBH any will probably do. Just have a look at some online retailers and see what you fancy.

Have a look a Goodyear Wrangler HP,
WhenI got my disco it was fitted with Goodyear GT + 4 and then were replace with the identical tyre as required, but finally they were not available anymore, so I stayed with the same brand and had the Wrangler’s fitted, they are just as good as the old GT + 4, which were very sticky on the road, so no slipping or sliding how heavy it’s raining or braking so very happy.
The only time the discos ABS activates is on frost or snow covered roads, that’s when I test
the ABS still works... it’s like an annual ABS test.
My disco has only been used on the high way as fast as possible as slow as necessary.
BUT there’s is a down side with sticky tyres, that is I had to replace the disco fronts a 24k miles and the rear at 28k miles that not to sad compared with my company car which had 3sets of
fronts in 24k miles.

Cooper and general grabber also seem a popular choice. Look at craddocks or black circles online for a choice of different manufacturers
