Thread: 35 inch tyres.

adjust the steering stops to stop it rubbing, simple

simex are normally big for there 'size'.

wheel spacers or off set wheels will help to.

be prepared to spend money or have a workshop to fit 35's - if you dont have off set wheels you will have the turning circle of the titanic - off set wheels also your brakes will not be as good think about upgrading to RR vented ones, flares will be a must, you will need at least a 2" spring lift and possibly a 2" body lift., longer brake lines and so the list goes on.

seriously do research on it before you buy them as you may be making an expensive mistake - but if you do it right and get it engineered then it will be near unstopable

Have deep pockets i though mine were deep enough i fitted 35x12.5 Mickey Thompson MTZ's to mine and im still spending. gears are a must if you dont want to slow down on hills and everything you thought would break will break. Upgrade axles new raduis arms and trailing arms to adjust the castor back maybe double carden joint front prop shaft, sway bar droppers, 2 to 3 inch suspension 2"body lift flares camel cut, Std brakes are crap with 35's (even brand new everything) Like Blitz said research research research

Fitting 35" is not a cheap excercise

This is my disco with BFG KM2 muddies


2.5 " inch White Tiger Lift Kit
Extended Brake lines
Offset LRA Rims for better steering
Flares
4.11 diff ratio because of bigger wheels
front and rear Diffs upgraded to Maxi Drives with Axles.

Also you'll need to modify your front and rear bars as they will look absolutely Hideous at the standard height with 2.5 inch" lift

And in the end you'll need to get it engineered.

Thats a nice looking disco you have.
I am thinking of going to 285/75/16 with some diff off set rims so hope it works out for you mate they do look good all done up..

totally agree with you DISCO OWNER. Have basically done all this to mine to run 35 inchX12.5 Mickey T's. All these mods are a MUST and more because will things continally break. Gotta weigh up if its really worth it, definately wouldn't recomend if its just for looks. If i did it again i'd nearly be leaning towards 33's, as they will get you most places the 35's will with less stress and a bit better handling on road. But if you want to do it make sure you have a bit of $ to spend and research! - adam (p.s. for a full run down on what i had to do to mine check it out in 4wd Action mag #164, or on DVD #165! )

Thats a top job on you're disco DISCO OWNER by the way, looks very neat!
