Mark Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 If you have some lift, and you have already trimmed the arches, you should be ok. You don't specify width or offset (ie which wheels) so it is impossible to say for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clbarclay Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 A friend is running 285/75r16 Insa turbo special tracks, which measure over 33" high (retreads) on his disco with flexi arches and a HD 2" lift kit. These rubbed the arches a bit on the rear, though a body lift has sorted that out. His rock sliders needed trimming to match the flexi arches. As well as wheel offset, articulation can be another issue. I run 33x10.50 tyres (measure) and removed the 11" travel RC dampers from the rear because despite the significantly increased wheel offset, the inner rear wheel arches would have required chopping about and loosing the rear seats. This is on a RRC, but the inner wheel arches are bassically the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Attryde Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I have 255/85x16 on modular wheels mine (with wheel spacers to keep the steering lock) and the arches cut and flexi's fitted, but only a 1" lift and the rear wheels rub the rear of the arch when the axle is articulated.
