Any lift?

My disco rims are getting a +20 offset at the moment.. then off to get powercoated before they are clad with km2's.. I was going to try them standard height (for an isuzu) before attempting a lift (only if required).

No, but we do have about a 1" sag :lol2:

Got to get a new set of shocks and springs soon, THEN we'll have a lift :cool:

Pictures as requested. New 255/85/16 BFG MT KM2
Picked them up today. Done a quick run on the F3 with them - nothing offroad or in the wet as yet.
Speedo is now 100% correct to gps :)
They are louder, but its a defender so who cares :cool:
First impressions are tops, and they look great!!!

Will break them in through The Barringtons this weekend. Cant wait!
