Can anyone tell me if you can fit 285/75r16 under a td5 defender without doing a lift

Answer is yes for fit, and no for fit well. You'll find plenty of tyre size info with the search tool.

Hey Ben,

What rims are you running? I dont think some standard rims are wide enough or offset enough to avoid rubbing, it depends on what rims are on your truck.

Im Running 285/75r16 on my defender on 16x8 -25mm offset dynamic rims.:D You will need to extend your wheel flares to make it road legal. You can extend them with Garden edging. 286/75 will fit fine with stock suspension and will flex just as well.

Ask me if you have any other questions.:)

Cheers
Pete
