« on: November 20, 2009, 21:05:08 »

One of my mates runs this size on a 90, it works, but to my mind they look a bit lost in the arches!

And its 16 inch tyres he's on about!

The 225's are 29.3 inch tall (Diameter)

whereas 235.70.16's (pretty much a standard size on Discovery's) are 29 inch tall.

So what you are looking at is tyres that are a bit narrower, but ever so slightly taller (0.3 inch)

They are a Landrover fitment for many early 90's.

They will look absolutley ridiculous on a 110 far to tiny, and if you've got an original transfer box will run out of steam about 50mph

chuck some 33s under it
