Should be fine, tho' i have known the odd person need to do a slight camel cut.

Needed to do a camel cut on mine found out the hard way

depends what wheels you use and what offset,  standard wheels will be ok but you might loose abit of lock on the steering i lovered the offset on mine so had to cut the arches, i have the same tyres

[loony landy]

Have you got any pics please

That's because Keith has strawberry jam in his shocks and they've gone all saggy!  :D

Not helpful and even slightly  :off topic:.... sorry!

I have 235 85 16's colway MT's on with a 2" lift , I had to trim the back arch a bit but they work well .

It may also depend on the tyre make too as some have large sidewall lugs that will make a difference the the amount you cut .

[loony landy]

Cheers folks

hopefully ill get the lift and clearance if not ill fit spacer as well  :shock:

Should be ok though

Mate runs a new standard suspension system on the Disco with 235.85R16's. The only mod was the camel cut!

He takes it to extreme articulation with no problems.

No mods and standard suspension ???  So i could get them fitted before i do the lift on sat then and they would be fine ???

[Disco-andy]

i also have a mate who dose  runs them on standard sus  but he cut the first lip off the arches all the way round. they are grizzly claws mind.

I have 235 85's on mine, with a 2 inch lift, cranked radius arms, etc, and zero offset 7inch rims, i have had to do a big camel cut, AND also similar on the front of both rear arches..... i suspect this is due to the wheel offset, so spacers might make things worse...!!!
I have also had issues on the front, if you still have the standard front bumper, you may find it needs trimming, again, i have QT front arms, and have also had to do a camel style cut on the rear of each front arch......

so, quite a lot of messing about really......

Mine are bfg mud terrains, so can i run them without to many mods 

Was going to get them put on and run them till the weekend when i do the suspension lift, would they be ok till then

they will fit on but you still need to do the camel cut and trim the frount bumper end caps.    (and stay out of big pot holes)

[loony landy]

[!Expletive Deleted!] was not going to do the camel cut and end caps till sat when ill be with a few like minded peeps who have already done it to theres already !!!!


Might have to risk it and see

[lee celtic]

I fitted mine before the cuts.........

on the drive home from my mate garage the tyres were kind enough to leave marks where the cut need to be  :lol: :lol:

but if I had carried on or hit any bumps they would have done damage ;)

[loony landy]

well i went to get them done today.......... but broke down insted ????

Got to take apart the whole fuel system because i either have water in it or maybe [!Expletive Deleted!] from the tank !!!!!!!
