No I am sorry but I really doubt that it would make the turning circle any better [-X No way!
As for looking mean.... I don't subscribe to that. To me it smacks of being somewhat chavvy, it would be far better to go for a slightly wider wheel with a complimentary offset :D

with 35inch tyres it does ;)

You might be right but the last time I drove anything with tyres that large the vehicle had blue lights on it and had a crappy turning circle ;)

Works for me too Dan !
karlo:
Years ago (showin me age) it was a lot cheaper to use spacers instead of buying wheels with more offset,
a wider track gives you more stability therefore in theory if you raise a vehicle its not as stable,
if you widen the track of the vehicle it helps with stability as rally cars low with a wide track makes for better cornering.
Plus if you have bigger tyres and the tyres rub the chassis on full lock spacing them out stops the tyre rubbing
and keeps your turning circle.

Oi! You lot:
So where is the cheapest place to get 30mm spacers for a LR :-.
