    Thanks Grover for the ride height info. I measured it up this morning and I got 20.5 inches in the back and 20 inches in the front . On discoweb they list stock height as 18.5 front and 19.5 back. Look like I only got a 1 - 1.5 inch lift .

    Will this impact the fitment of these tyres ? I'm guess it might mean I just need to cut a little more metal (and wont be getting my winch bar on)?

    Thanks again

    Your barwork will fit just fine with these measurements
    And the only cut you'll need is the Camel Cut

    I'm also a bit of a ****** though and run wide tyres on most vehicles they suck more power to push along and in heavy going its noticeable too!

    Doubt you will regret the 235's... If I hadnt got 18's I would of stayed on 32's and gone 235's

    That was certianly our experience too in the UK which is mainly mud Ian would always go a skinny tyre over a fat one
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    G,day Im running a cheap set of Maxxi Bravo 750s 245 70 16s. Yes know this is a bit off subject as these are'nt muddys but I thought I would just say how good Im finding these tyres. The Rovers a school bus most of the week. The Maxxis are good on the road just about no noise and very smooth ride. Off road there good I go pretty much every where every one else goes. Ive pulled mates out in muddy conditions and some of them run chuncky muddys. I dont know if its the Disco or the driver but I do know Its hard not to get a big head at times All for $760. set of 4
