Tyre sizes

<< < (3/3)

Xtremeteam:
the 265 is the width in mm & the 75 is the percentage of the overall width thus giving the sidewall height

750's or 235/85/16 is the largest tyre LR fit as standard

Really???

When Land Rover offered the Freestyle package on 90's the standard tyre size was 265x75x16 (both in mud terrain and all terrain - both BFGoodrich)... the 50th Anniversary 90 V8 also had 265x75x16 tyres (BFGoodrich All Terrain) - as did all NAS 90 V8's.

At the moment (however) the largest tyre they fit is 235x85x16... which comes on all Defenders with Boost Alloys.  
Unless that is, you include SVO - who still fit 265x75x16's to some of their Defenders (mainly the ones for the various electricity companies)

Or is it me just being pedantic??  :wink:  :roll:
