    Sorry, it was 35? today up here and too hot to get under my car in my suit....ive got these shots of the car with the awesome tyres..

    the gap btw the the top ball joint in only about 2-3mm and they dont seem to rub.

    clearance on the rear is pretty good too.

    Thanks for the pics Muskie.
    What psi are you running on the beach????
    The sand looks firm,how would you rate the sand.Hard,Firm,Soft,Very Soft,I need some Viagra?????
    There are 2 WA "DISCOVERY" on the bonnet owners that are very not happy with the 255/55X19 in "I need some Viagra" sand As we discovered on a recent fishing trip.
    We were really strugling in sand we both thought our D2's would sail thru.
    It may have been tougher than we thought,there was an SDV6 "DISCOVERY" on the bonnet in the caravan park with a horribly re-aranged front recovery point on the front.

    oh Landy Andy, you cracked me up !! So funny!!

    these shots were taken at Rainbow Beach/Double Island point, up on the Sunshine Coast and it was an Awesome Trip!!

    there were three of us on this trip and we never struggled once.....passed a Pajero that was Bogged and the wife yelled out, as we drove past, that they wished that they had one of those!

    we were running 20psi on the beach and didnt use the sand mode once......its those tyres im telling you! they should have all came out with balloon tyres!

    oh, and the water was Crystal clear at 26'!

    we all got in trouble by the wives when we got home.....the kids got bad sunburn and they ate too much icecream on the beach :-)

    We were down to 15psi and strugling.Once we got speed up they floated ontop nicely.LOTS of back/forward back/forward back/forward before we got moving if we stopped anywhere.The max trax were even deployed once,Aaron assures me it was just to demonstrate what awesome bits of gear they are

    What rims are you running.

    They look like black RRS rims.

    Do you know what offset they are.

    I have a vague recollection they have a slightly different offset to disco rims.
