    Will 235/85R/16 fit on a 95 V8 disco 4 door on steel wheel with out scrubbing?

    Hi, Will 235/85R/16 fit on a 95 V8 disco 4 door with original steel wheels with out scrubbing any where on a stock original suspension set up?
    Hi I have just brought a 95 V8 auto Disco which will be the base of a build up that I am going to do.
    I am going to give it a suspension lift I was thinking about 2 to 3 inches.
    Thanks Peter

    Hi Peter,
    I have just fitted 235/85 and have a 2" lift, first drive it bent drivers side rear lower section up, so I camel cut it that afternoon. I'll be doing the front soon too as it doesn't look like alot of clearance as once its in the offroad stuff I don't want tyre grabbing the guard.

    Should fit without any mod's. I would try for at least 245/75/16 for a bit extra clearance.

    Have a look at this link to give you a guide.

    Not sure, I thought it was in the mods to be performed bit but does not say there. It might have been another one I've seen. There's a few of them. I think the LRA website has a mod list too.
