G30RGE:
215 80 15 in place of standard 17" road tyres give me 30mm lift  :P

ive just got new 04  freelander with 17inch wheels by fitting 215 80 15 rather than standerd size will this efect the speedo

G30RGE:
Yes if radius is different

On mine - a calculation showed teht teh speedo would be 8mph out of sync

However - checking with satnav it is only 2mph out so not so bad

For calculation Look Here  (about 1/2 way down page)

wanabeoffroader:
cheers g30rge thats a usefull web site to know about  :D

Gordo:
The Freelander doesn't seem to like full-on mud tyres. I'm told that AT tyres work better with the traction control system, and get through stuff that mud-tyres get stuck in.

Mine's got General Grabber AT2s on, and they got me around the course at Abingdon without any drama.
