Thought I’d engage the hive mind in a search for 3peaks tyres for the new defender 19” wheels.

Over on another forum a user complained that there appear to be no approved winter tyres for the New Defender with R19s. R20s/R18s are fine, but certified 3peaks (soon to be legal requirement in the alps in winter), are elusive.

Exact size is: 255/65/R19

But I’ve tried a few wider/thinner options and still no joy.

It’s a big ol’ tyre.

Any suggestions welcome (besides the obvious new rims or snow chains).

Both Camskill and Tyreleader have Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season listed at sensible prices, but can't see any reference to actual mountain/snowflake marking.
