Tyre rub

(1/2) > >>

2 the max:
Why are my (standard size) greenway macho mud tyres rubbing on full lock on my mk1 discovery? I didnt think fitting this size mud tyres would require spacers? They are 235/70/16 if i remember rightly...same size as the standard road going spare tyre.

boss:
could be a couple of things

i would jump at that isnt the origional size to start with....only im not sure. also the side lugs are alot bigger. a better way to sort it might be fitting wheels with a bigger off-set on them. £50 ea from paddocks??? 

stretchy:

If you look round the swivle thers a stop bolt thing, undo this a bit on the opesit side a bit at a time to stop your wheel rubing on the radius arm. I think you need about an inch between your tyre and radius arm

lurch_917:
you have 2 standard tyer sizes on a disco   205 and 235 now all depends what it came off the line with its just a mater of adjustind your stearing stops looks like a bolt that does nothing on the back of your swivels you ajust the oposite if the r/hs rubbing adjust the left and visa versa
