I run 235/70 R16's on mine, as fitted as standard for 16" rims.
A friend of mine fitted 15" BMW 5 series steel rims to his DiscoII TD5. He widened it to 8J and fitted 31x10.5x15 Cooper MT'S. The rims clear the calipers and backing blates without any cutting. He did a 20mm body lift. Suspension is still standard at this point. Will post more photos later.

Here are photos of D2 with the 15" wheels.

Looks good and nice in sand...

Another set of Pecos would be good - they're built like a brick 'loo. I once hit a gutter in the RR (ice on the road) and comprehensively demolished a rim, and the centre spider didn't bend whatsoever.

Got 17" king rims on mine with allterrain's. Cost me $650 all up 4 new rims and hardly used allterrain's from my local Bridgestone select mate.
