(Couldn't help myself, Groundhog Day n all!)

I have ordered my GOE wheels. I will be putting the 20" rims on the D3 and using the 18" rims off the D3 for the camper trailer and spares.

Aaron's 285/50/20 spare wouldn't fit in the spare wheel well, I'm guessing? Any further news on scrubbing etc?

It fits deflated, with valve removed. same as 285/60r18 which is a few mm larger in diameter. I moved ECU wiring on RHF chassis rail higher to stop scrubbing with zip ties. I have noticed a small amount of scrubbing in RHF wheel well at front bottom inside of wheel well liner only in reverse full lock right hand down, will bend it back or trim a few cms off.

Happy with tyres so far, they are a lot quitter than the GG 255/55/19s they replaced with 30kms on.

Will see how they perform against Andrews 18s this week on the Beach...:D

Ah, i didn't notice any wire looms, will have to hve another look.

My wheel liners were cable tied to the bull bar at the front, but at some point they were ripped off so going to try cable ties with the liner inside the bullbar now...

Rears need some heat gun moulding. Might finally get to these today.

Makes me wonder how people squeeze 275 65 18s under. The 285 60s are tight.

Hehe.. let's clarify - the 285/60s are illegal [emoji13]
(Without a heap of mods that no one does).

Yep, but who's going to pull over a Discovery when there's plenty of Patrols and L/C's with 4" lifts and 35's to target :P

I'm just wondering how people are making the 275 65's fit with a bull bar?? If mine are knocking the cable ties off that they put on when you get the bar, how are there's not hitting it....
