Pete:
There is no 265/70/16  
 
  Really?????  
  I have to wonder what Iv'e been running on for the past couple of years.  265/70 R16  G-TRAX  AT, is what it says on all five tyres on mine. Mates Disco has the same size in MT.
  Lite cut to rear arches, and trim plastic vallance under ftont bumper, no lift needed.

having done a good deal i`m just about to DOWNSIZE to 235/75 R16 in colway MT form, i`m thinking this will assist in gearing, increase claerance(as 235/85`s were a tad close for my liking...

i understand this is standard size on the 300TDI`s?

wingy:
Hey guys i have a2" lift, i've cut out my arches alot to fit wheel arch spats front and back (Including the rear doors!) and i have extended bump stops. Can someone give me an idea on the biggest tyre i can fit on standard freestyle alloys?

Lumbering Jack:
Hi guys,

My 200 disco is running 235/85/16 at's with a 2 inch suspension lift and no apparent arch trimming - I was wondering if my 265/75/16's on 8 spokes will fit off my 130 defender as a temporary thing until I can afford a better set of boots for the disco or will I need to do a bit of trimming? :?: .  

Also, as the discovery is pretty much a play thing, is it worth the hassle of trying to squeeze something like 35/12.5/15s on or should I just stick to a decent 235/85 or similar?  Been looking at either recips, machos or insa turbo special tracks

Dr Strangeglove:
I thought this was of use
