new tyres . Size?

(1/3) > >>

chris_harvey:
hey i am looking around for new tyres for my disco 1 as i am going to be ordering some when i get back from holiday end of next month but at the moment i am on 15" wheels and tyres . i want to move up to 16's but i am unsure of what size to order . i have a 2" suspension lift on the truck  and don't really want them to scrub the body of the car , but i want the chunkiest widest i can get if you get me .
i am going to be putting extended flexi arches on the car soon so if i need to put them on b4 i change the wheels then so bit it .

basically i would just like to know whats the best tyre size to have

thanks in advance

Do a search on here, but i'd say 235.85R16

Range Rover Blues:
235/85 are stock tyres for a 110 Defender and fit nicley on a Disco with 2" lift and no other mods, unless you have spacers the only wheelarch mod you need is a tiny trim on the back of the rear arch.

With flexi arches you could go wider and/or bigger offset but much taller and they will rub the arches on full twist.

My m8 has put it to me that as my wheels are 15" I can get really big chunky tyres but stay in 15" the reason I wanted to step up 2 16s is fir the hight as his is much taller than myn an more ground clearance. So does any have any ideas of what size I could get ?? Thanks
