Hi guys just wondering if any one had any advice on the correct tyre pressures for 33x12.5x15 tires i had fitted to my disco 300tdi when i first got it
i couldnt get on with them and changed to 31x10.5x15 but was wondering if it was the pressures they were at

If I were you I would do a bit of experimenting. There is no absolute std. pressure for these non std. tyres, so start of with, for example 33psi front and 36psi rear, then go up and down by 2 psi and see what setting you like.

The Land Rover recommended tyre pressures only have relevance for the Land Rover recommended tyres.

Define 'couldnt get on with them' Also what tyres?

Were they poor off road? wandered on the road?

Hi yes sorry , to explain further, they felt as though they were wondering about the road, aslo if you hit standing water was like the steering wheel was torn from your hands though thats down to the actual size i would imagine for refference they are Mastercraft Courser MTs

I can hit standing water in mine with no issues? Unless of course we are talking 80mph then you might have trouble. I tend to not do much more than 60/65 as MTs dont like high speeds. If its wandering you might want to check your wheel bearings/swivels/steering bars etc as something might be worn.
