Well did you try it??? :twisted:

Jonathan M:
No, we'd lost the light before we got there. Something to try next time round though.

--- Quote from: "Doobreydog" ---I have 50mm lift fitted and can definitely recommend it...Hard to see with shadows but rear wheel in photo about 3ft in air..Car is well used :twisted:

What tyres are you running? Would we get 215/75x15's on without mods? Or what about 235/75x15's?

I reckon the 215's would keep the gearing pretty much the same, so I suspect that would be preferable.

Just e-mailed Celtic 4x4 about the 50mm lift kit  :D

Doobreydog:
The ones in photos above are 215/80/r15 diamond back but do not think they would fit without a lift as they have nearly 20mm of tread  and personally would say profile was nearer 90 than the stated 80 and have diameter of about 30"

I do run a set of 205/80/r16 Avon ATs for general use which fit under with no lift, spacers or clearance problems and they have an overall diameter of 28.9"

As far as gearing/speed etc goes if you have a look at http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible.html you will find an excellent calculator.

For general Tyre/FL combinations see mad fl link below under mod/tech info.

Hope that helps  :twisted:
