265/75/16 Cooper STT tires w/ 2" OME lift.
(At least I *think* it's a 2" OME lift.) Hah! I haven't had my Rover techs inspect it, yet. They're finishing up installation of new lowering springs on my Jag.
These tires are awesome compared to the smaller BFG All Terrains that came with the vehicle as I bought it. They were old, too, and chunked when I took it out for some crawling.
I got 5 new Cooper STT tires. CooperTiresConsumer - Discoverer STT<span class='trademark'>™</span> In the video, the tires are at 15psi front and 10 psi rear. The rear sway bar is removed. No cones, etc., yet.
The rear bumper caught a few times on the outing. I'll be ordering front and rear bumpers soon. I'm considering the RTE Slimline for the front ( SlimLine Front Bumper - Discovery Series I - Rovertym Inc. ) and the Tactical rear bumper ( Land Rover Discovery High Clearance Rear Bumper ).
I haven't had the steering stops adjusted yet, but the tires do allow for a decent turn prior to rubbing in a tight turn. No contact with fenders has been experienced yet. I've seen these tires described as 32". The tire guys say that they're 32 1/2".
I had gone over the same spot in the video previously and had to negotiate an area with the rear tires spinning on a ledge. With the new tires, the Disco 1 went right up over it like a billy goat.
