Range Rover Blues:
Could also be that it's buiilt by Land Rover :roll:

Could be the eternal body lean

Are those tyres remoulds BTW?

Yep, Colway MT remoulds, wonder if they are slightly different sizes or it could be just that the tolerances were not that great when the car was built  :roll:

cotefarmboy:
Bushes are fine, arms are straight so I will book in for an alignment check.

In the meantime I have trimmed the plastic sill finisher by 1cm and it clears fine.

I'll second that! - no two are ever the same, it's that "hand built" appeal that Landies have  :roll:   :wink:  Just fitted 265/75x16's on mine - again lifted by +2" and the arches only just require trimming.

If bushes / arms are OK, it may just be Landy manufacturing tolerances, the stiffness of the springs may affect it and given the tyres are remoulds, they may well come up a little bit bigger than the marked size would suggest.

cotefarmboy:
Yeh, not going to worry too much about it as they clear OK now. Will get an alignment check done at some point though as I don't want to scrub the tyres down if it is out.
