Andy 300tdi:
got em on mine, just neded slighty adjustment to the lock stops

Litch:
Optional size fitted by LR, even has the correct tyre pressures for when fitted to a 90 in the owners handbook.
No problems with steering lock.

kzycnn:
I'm running 265/75*16 cooper STTs fitted to standard boost alloys on my 110.  Steering stops have had to be adjusted - lock is not good now -and there is also some rubbing on the upper suspension mounts at the rear.

These tyres come out wider than the equivalent BFGs which may explain
the rubbing at the rear.  

You should also be aware that 265s are not a recommended fit on 100s because the side walls are not strong enough.  265s are usually 6 ply whereas 235s are 9 ply.

The offset is too large (at 33mm) on boost alloys so, with modulars, you might not get the same rubbing issues.
