Thread: tyres

Ive got 33's on mine with a 2" lift, front has been fine, back chopped up the tyres on my first trip, you will need to cut or flatten back the inner guard out of the way, mine's fine now, stuffs up the gearing though with that size tyre.

Ray,

thanks for that maybe go for the 32inch thanks luke.

I've got 285x75x16 on rangie alloys with 2" BL & 2" spring lift &
had to trim guards front & rear.. flares are on there way!!

same with 32's, depends mainly on width, 235/85's will still just hit the guards on th rear, so stick 255/85's on your rims and start chopping

i bought the maxis bighorn,tyres love them 255x85x16 on the vogue rims fit good had to put the spacers on and a little chop here and there, still will have to get some flares on her then she will look great.

Good stuff, they look nice on bigger rubber..

sorry to dredge this up, but i am wanting bigger tyres and have nfi what will fit and what will fit with alterations to the body.
are there any threads which may have pics of how it is done, or does anyone have any pics of what they have put on/work carried out?
currently my 89 classic is running on 205r16's, disco 1 rims, ride height does look a litle higher than normal but i have only had it a week n a half and have nothing to compare it to.

took it out on the weekend to the beach and dunes and while it impressed me with how reliable it was, i know it would be better with some wider tyres, so the quest begins...

thanks in advance
matt

ps. i can get pics up if it helps with advice?
