You know what guys, i have a Suzuki now and they are not as good off road as land rovers period! But i have to say the one good thing is that you dont get some of the "Landy Crap", i.e. Biggest tyres, Biggest Lift, high lift hanging off the back etc etc etc.

I USED my landy heavy all throughout greenlanes and pay and plays etc.

I have to say that i am impressed with bullys set up, when i see it with a 4 or 5 ft jack i think wow.

So please, someone show me a picture, a diagram, a scinario or anything where you need tyres, lifts etc any more than bullys set up! THE MAN HAS 5 FT OF FLEX!!!! Bully, i do take my hat off to you sir!

So come on someone, 40", 38" etc, it is [!Expletive Deleted!] [bollards]. I think the only thing you will get from 40" etc is VERY poor handling, a seriouslly comprimised roll over angle and huge stress to drive train etc.

Someone tell me what is impressive about tyres over 35"?

when is it all happening then? chuck some pics and feedback up on here as you do it please. :lol:  8)  what size tyres did you get in the end?

extreme90:
so cmon
what tyres have you got
and being big headed about your freind owning a breakers yard.....please i couldnt give a toss

take it from me, i broke 1 half shaft and i got fed up of just changing that ! and i broke that at idle rpm just pulling away in mud on 35 inch simex, so good luck with stupid tyres if you've ignored us lot who have been there and done that

why post up for advise from us lot who have spent thousands of manhours on our land rovers to make them unstopable/unbreakable
only for you to go and ignore us  :roll:
was it just to get attention ?
sorry but i really dont get you here its rediculous

With those humungous wheels & tyres I hope steveo doesn't try to drive any Kent lanes, cos he WILL get stuck under our loverly low branches. Still it will be fun pulling him out.
