    Hi guys the tyre company that I use in the past, use this calculator and you put in your standed tyres that on your car or truck door ,then put in the tyres you want to get, then it tell you what rolling diameter is OK.

    Here's a listing for a '99 Defender 110 Extreme http://rvcs-prodweb.dot.gov.au/perl/9419_2...03_FORS4308.cmd Scroll down to the bottom of the page for wheels and suspension data.
    That looks great but I don't really know what to put in for my 81 range rover?

    Anyone know? I want to find out what the standard tyres where.

    If I read the right, then a Defender only as 33mm of front and 50mm of rear wheel travel.

    yep, only has 33mm between the bump stops on the front, what a crock.....
    typical, the Feds can't get it right.

    When I checked the listing for my '98 a few years ago, I could've got away with something like a 4" lift, according to the published numbers.
