Default TIre and wheel combo

Hi,

I have an 04 disco, completly stock. I need tires on it. A friend has a set of tires and wheels from a range rover, 265-75-R16's. Currently we have 255 -55-r18's on it.

Will the 16's, tires nad wheels fit on my disco?

Thanks,

Greg

Most people prefer the 16" wheels, problem for you is that a 265 won't fit your truck with out a 2" lift.
By the way, I run 265's and they are great other then they cost you about 1.5 MPG and a little low end power because of their size.

I suggest you do a 2" lift for a 265. That 1.5 MPG is not a big loss. But I have a question. What are you going to do? Are you going off roading a lot?
