    33" on standard suspension

    hi there,
    does anyone know if 33" X 12.5 X 15 on 8" rims will fit a stock suspension setup? 96 Disco V8
    im in need of new tires and found a set of cheap second hand BF goods, considering them but scared they will be to big.
    cheers,
    nick

    I fitted 33s on mine. you'll need to chop all the fenders and fit flares of some sort and a 2in body lift. all up cost me about $200. a friend machined up some poly blocks cos they are about $400 from a store. or check white tiger lift kits

    Yes, they'll fit.

    You just need a slight trim of the wheel arches - about 6" should do it.

    Hey mate!

    I have a 96 Disco, stock height with OME shocks and 235/70/16 cooper HTs

    These pic's show the wheel pretty much tucked up as far as it will get, may have a smidge more articulation left in it, but wouldn't be much



    No room for 33's unless you want to chop out the guard beyond reason.

    Hope this helps!
