I am looking for a good set of rubber floor mats. What does everyone here like and where is a good place to buy them?

Kraco fit better then the factory ones . they hold huge amounts of water without spilling and have a runner that fits all the way across the back side to side

at pep boys for under $50 for all three

Chad,
If you have a Bi Mart in your area, they have a special on Kraco mats. The multi-season one piece fits the drivers side of my D1 perfectly- but it won't fit the passenger side. The mat is the type that will hold mud/snow and is good quality rubber. I paid $9.97 but they are on special right now. If you don't have a Bi Mart go to www.Kraco.com and go Products, multi-season, Premium 2500 that's the one.
Cheers,
Paul.

Oh man. The nicest floor mats for the Disco are the Genuine Land Rover black rubber ones.

Sergei, If you want to get rid of what you have left in the LR Rubber, let me know. I would love to have a back up set.

The Wallyworld front mats are ok for the front, but for the rear the LR mats are to way to go. They fit awesome.

I'd vote for the "spray-in" ones, or the "brush-on" ones...:-)

I just got mine and John is completely right. Genuine Landrover mats are the best.

Guys,
Kraco mats come in black too- the genuine LR mats are SO expensive! Where is the best place to get just the rear mat (for the passengers)? I've looked everywhere- including Ebay- but my nearest LR dealer is 270 miles away!
Cheers,
Paul.

I think Rovers North sells just the rear set.

I bought the Walmart rubber mats and they work great in keeping water, etc. in place. I'm glad I have it when the wife dumped a large starbucks coffee and actually kept it contained.

"Oh man. The nicest floor mats for the Disco are the Genuine Land Rover black rubber ones."
John Lee's right!! I Love Mine! They stay flexible in all temps and are very durable. But you might want some of the aftermarket ones with the lips to hold the mud off your carpets. I have full rubber, no carpet anywhere.

must say that for $7.95 a piece for the front, the walmart mats aren't half bad. I picked them up in a pinch as Northern VA got a little snow (used to buffalo winters, but understand the PITA that ice on the carpets causes).

They seem to fit well, especially the driver side.

the LR mats are nice, but I don't know about durable. I have just finished wearing through my second mat in the driver's position.
