New Boots Fitted To Disco

<< < (2/5) > >>

Telaren:
Not found any probs with the steering due to the new rims - Modulars (30mm Offset)

Spoke to the experts- They reckon that once off road any articulation would basically remodel the body work.

They suggested going to 245/70/16 max and even then to consider the possibility of a 2" lift.

I have friends running those on their range rovers etc.

Now you have bought them you should (or i would) persaveer and get them to fit.

2" lift kit, trim the front plastic from the bumper, do a camel cut on the rear arch (loads of info on here) and then adjust your steering stops and i bet you will cut about 75% of the rubbing!

Unfortunatyly from my experience i would say you will have to do most of this even if you fitted 245-75R16 and other than that you are probably better sticking with original size (or 235-70).

Is there no chance you can take them back.

Feel sorry for you but do the above and you will be lots better.

If after all that they are still bad then you will have to start cutting back the arches and fitting flexible overhangs like they have on the defender.

Fit a 2 inch lift and they will be fine!
