Tyres on a Freelander 1

Ignorant question from a Defender owner. My bro has got a tidy freelander 1. We were just wondering what is the widest mud tyre that can be fitted without losing turning circle or hitting spring stops etc. Equally if one was to use spacers as well how wide is it possible to go. Also whats the law on this?

Note it is an original spec with no mods. The alloy rims look as though they are wider than my wolf rims on my Defender so I'm guessing the rim can easily take a much wider tyre its just whether the vehicle can. We are on a very wet muddy farm in Cornwall hence the question.

Im watching with interest, I have just bought 5 new 235x65x17 all terrains and curious to know if they will hit the spring cups.

The top part of the tyre is tapered so unsure if it will clear. Going to get the spare fitted with new tyre tomorrow.

Really dont want to go down spacer route if i have to.
