    265/75 R16's

    Can someone please clear up whether I can fit 265/75 R16's on a 2003 Disco 2, without a suspension lift or do I need a 2" lift? I have an ARB Bullbar and what look like factory side steps. HELP!

    Cheers

    Paul

    Have that size on mine.
    No dramas with them back when I had the sagy std springs.
    I havn't got the side steps but from memory there was 30mm at the back of the front wells at the closest point.

    265/75/16's are 32"

    No lift required for the tyres but if you are going off road a 2" lift is always advantageous and recommended for improved gground clearance.

    I recently had them fitted to my 2001 with no lift. No dramas really. I get minor rubbing (front tyres on plastic bar) when steering is locked. Very minor I must add. I would recommend a 2" lift if you are planning on doing any sort of serious 4WD'ing. I would like to, but no cash for that :P
