neil00001 Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 well got me tyres on, 2 inch lift completed, new shocks, From reading so much on the forum, I was a bit worried about how much this tyre size would affect the car. Although Rejo said it would be fine ! Well I do commute 200 miles a day in it. I am well chuffed!!!! More relaxed cruising, no decernable loss of power. Still picks up its skirts away from the lights, well in Disco fashion. Dont have to slip the clutch to pull away either. Tomorrow I will attempt the "Camel Cut" on the rear arches and cut down the front valance and bumper end caps. Any advice on cutting these bits more than welcome!!!!!! One question though what tyre pressures should I run these tyres on? Cheers, Neil 93 200tdi Quote
JimAttrill Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 I run my 110 with the same tyres at 250kpa all round. The LR 'official' tyre pressures are too low at the front so the tyres wear out on the sides, and too high at the rear so you bounce around. These are pressures for the road, of course. Quote

Thanks Jim. is that the same as 2.5 bar? Cheers, Neil Quote
JimAttrill Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Yes, near as dammit. Well, exactly because 250 Kpa is exactly 2.5 bar Quote
