12 inch lift isnt required for that size tyre at all. the problem is hes gone too wide and offset them far too much, dont forget you only need 2 more inches of upward space compared to a 35. Mines on 35 and is pretty much on the limit articulation wise.
It looks crap because the lift is so high. The icelandic guys manage to find a balance. I was lucky enough to have a go in a 40 inch tyres landcruiser in Iceland about 12 years back....now that was done properly...here a series 111 with 31's was considered extreme!!
It had 2 gps units when they were still mega bucks aswell.... damn i want to go to Iceland again!! -35 is an amazing experience

There's a TD5 Disco on the DOC with 40s. Looks nicer too, but it's quite a conversion, as it's on portals too.
You can see it here, but again, no idea how useable it actually is over here.

I don't suppose it's ideal for green laning, but if you want a truck to drive across ice caps, or more likely to take to the shows and get attention, I think it does the job fairly well. I can't honestly say that if somebody gave me one, I'd sell it on straight away!

I like it when people do this sort of thing ,
It pushes the envelope a little each time somthing like this is done 8)
Imagine the first guy who thought "I know I'll fit 235/85's on my disco and then found he'd have to lift it and cut arches :shock:
If he hadn't then the normal stuff we do wouldn't be normal .
I think from a certain angle it looks cool yes some of it is messy and could have been done better and yes it might not be practical or indeed legal but and it's a big BUT, if people like this didn't try somthing new now and again nothing would move forward ..
I think it looks like a full size RC car and for that I quite like it. :D
