    The look like 265/75R16's from the pic. Whatever they are they';re a damn sight better than the crap Harry had on of late

    Talking Working hard.... That's natural for Harry's D1

    That bloody Disco of Harrys is bomb-proof, like the Aquarangie was Bend it, break it, straighten it and it just keep on going the bloody thing.

    I miss the Aquarangie, 4 RRC's later I still haven't filled the void but I'm working on it

    Who needs a heater in QLD . The Aquarangie never had a functioning heater, didn't stop it (was re-routed when I bought it but never botherd to repair it). The air con worked a treat though which is more of a concern esp. if you're like me who suffers from heat stroke easily

    Now I an getting sad talking about the Aquarangie, need to change the bloody subject Oh yes, like the tyres Harry and it looks the part

    ok, firstly,
    thank you or the nice comments.
    now the tyres are lt285/75 x 16 maxxis bighorns,
    car is on a two inch spring lift and we are still to see if the 'guard work is adequate.
    sliders are a copy of justins, thanks justin, with some differences, home grown with gary's help [well he did them, i just made mine look nice!, thanks gary]
    and trav, the last set were from josh and were a test to see what fits under a d1.
    apart from them being a bit old the size was perfect for a d1, but when i got new tyres they were a bit wider and stuffed all my plans.
    however i now have 9 inches under the front diff and ten under the rear.
    so that is pretty good for a d1.

    [shut up phillipe!, 35's don't count]
    Safe Travels

    285's

    Good size, did you use your std Disco rims? Nothing wrong with that, I ran the Silverstones on them on ol' bluey (now named BOB by it's new owner) although it was a 10 point turn to get arond some tight tracks as the turning circle was ****ed

    I had a 40mm body lift and @35mm spring lift on that Rangie, rubbed on full compression but on 99% of trails it was fine.
