Hi fellow members
I thought I would start a general tread relating to members wheel, tyre and lift pictures.
If you wish to add technical details such as engine, gearbox or driveline or your final thoughts go ahead.
Though I would prefer to keep the general chat to a minimum e.g off topic conversations.
So lets get started.
My 1994 Land Rover Defender 110 Tray back.
Engine: 300tdi no mods
Gearbox: R380 300tdi ratios, Lt230 1.4 High Ratio
Diffs: Standard 3.54:1 ratio, Salisbury rear diff
Lift: None
Wheels: Standard steel with 235/85R16 Ironman Radial A/P
Final Thoughts: The Truck seems to run fine on the larger tires, since this truck would have had 750R16s.

Sorry for the lack of a decent picture...I'm away and all the good pics are on the home computer.
I have Bridgestone MTs in 235/85R16 for my 2009 Puma 110.
A downside is that they produce a little too much road noise for my liking but that aside they provide outstanding traction off-road.
Old Man Emu heavy duty suspension has been fitted front and back which resulted in an unintended slight 15-20mm lift. The new suspension did however result in an odd vibration through the transfer case in 5th/6th when the load came off the accelerator. I fitted a double carden shaft and this solved the problem.
Everything else is standard.
....and no name as yet for the new toy.

Hi , nice rig , I would be keen to know how much the powder coating of your rims cost ? Thinking of doing mine too - gun metal grey though not black. Here's my current config ;
No lift
Front end does have 130 HD rear springs though.
Brand spanking 265/75/16 Mickey Thompson ATZ P3 's

What do you think of the ATZ P3s? I have been looking at them for my car.

Paid $200 for 5 wheels. Had them sandblasted separately.
Gun metal would be a better choice.

Hi Neale
I like the tyres thus far - only road use to date , planning on a day trip to Vic high country very shortly to test their grip.
Not noisy ,but my Deefer is a noisy bugger anyway , so no issue if they get noisier with wear. I like the look of them and they feel softer and more comfortable than my old GG 235/85. Which had done 120,000kms ! Very good longevity , but not great in the wet , and I wanted something a little wider and more aggressive.
$360 each in Hawthorn Goodyear tyre centre.

My 200tdi 110.
Standard driveline,
No lift.
255/85/R16 BFG KM2's (33" equivalent)
0 offset king steelies.
Went hard, on fitting 0 offset in place of the standard steelies my turning circle improved and I had no scrub on the forward control arm, which I experienced with smaller 31" Cooper ST's that used to be on it on standard rims. Fuel consumption unchanged, speedo read correct against GPS, so go figure.

Now my new td5 130.
2" lift fitted by PO so not too sure really.
Same tyres. Got a long travel suspension kit in it, fitted by me. These are the same tyres as in the previous photo, so they did about 10-15,000 k's on the old Deefer, went through a crash (where the old one got written off) then on the 130 and got about 20-30,000 more on them.
Wearing well, though they did get some chipping when I did gregory national park, but I don't think you could find any place in Australia harder on tyres, to be frank.
