BrUcE Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hello. I would like to know if anyone is running those size tires on a defender with a 2" lift? Or 305/70/16? My opinion is that 295/75/16 look much better than the 285/75/16 and I dont even want to say it rubs because its only at a full FULL lock. It's not a problem at all really. Thank you Bruce Kingston Jamaica W.I. Heres mine in the parking lot over this weekend gone. l would want to keep the body as you see it. Sorry about the huge size of the pic.

Exmoor Beast Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 There was a Blue double cab 110 in one of the mags recently running 315s I think, they were using spacers to get some lock back and it still rubbed the arches offroad from memory.

pigster Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 don't know about the tyre bit, but your motor looks really cool. are those half top doors - with the push button handles.. ????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 That's nice - what are the wheels - I'm guessing 8.5x16 Compomotive AT's? I was looking at getting a set of those plus BFG MT 305/70R16 but the cost of the whole package was a bit <ahem HOW much> so I am still thinking about it!

missingsid Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 don't know about the tyre bit, but your motor looks really cool.are those half top doors - with the push button handles.. ????? They look like wind up window doors with the tops cut off. Look at the capping as it is not the same shape as LR capping? Does look nice and as an owner of a Series 1 and a 88/90 RRC Hybred with wind up windows I like the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrUcE Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 Yes is the answer to all the questions. The wheels I absolutely love and don't regret at all but the tires are what I found to be damn expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy robinson Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 how about 35 x 10.5 x 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landybehr Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 is there any choice of wheels in that size (35/10.5-R15) ??? Price ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrUcE Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Not too shaby and thanks but looking for 16's. BfGoodrich makes a new size to the mudterrain and thats what I would love. With my current tires the 295/75 wasn't available in mud. http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/bfg/resultsComparator.do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hi Bruce I'm running cooper discoverer STTs in 315/75-16 on my 110 down here in Barbados with 2" OME lift and haven't had any problems. My arches are slightly trimmed but that was not done for these tyres and reckon you could get away without trimming just would need to be extra careful offroad... I'm using 16x9 Mach 5 wheels with the appropriate offset. I can email you some pics if you're interested... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
