isnt 235/70 the stock size?
pretty sure thats what was on mine when i bought it... either 235/70 or 235/75. anyway, fit fine...

 

you are right .......derp , what about the 265's? I have heard good things aboout the guard dogs.

 

I LIKE BOTH OF THEM, great prices on each!

 

will the 265's fit on stock suspension?

 

maybe if you dont turn or go over any bumps...?


the 235/85s look like theyd barely fit with stock suspension.

 

looks like I am getting the lift first. which by the way atlantic british has the tf202 md kit for 399, thinking I am going that route

 

I think you'll be happier in the end with the Pro Sport +2" shocks, but that is a good price. Maybe they'll let you upgrade to the Pro Sport for the difference(~$80) or less. Atlantic British is pretty good about working with you to get you what you want/need. The worst they can do is say NO.

 

On my first Disco, I was running the OME kit and had Pirelli Skorpion tires 255/70/16 on the stock rims. It was pretty much set up for touring and light trails. It drove and handled really nice, close to stock. No need to change any gearing or cut any fenders....

For a cheaper alternative...those M/T Dakota tires from Pepboys are pretty reasonable priced....

For daily use and offroad, those Cooper Zeon LTZ look pretty good too. A guy that lives near me has them on an LR3. I really like the look of that A/T....

Or just get the best A/T out there....Pirelli Skorpion STR....toughest A/T.

 

Hmm...the more I obsess, er research online, the 245/75/16 looks like a better fit for a 2-inch lift. The 235/85/16 looks huge.

Anyhoo...looking forward to some pics from ValveCoverGasket. I'm looking at pulling the $$ trigger in the next month.

 

they fit really well, i went with BFGs just cause its a safe bet and what was on there (in a smaller size) already.


we'll be taking it into the mountains saturday so therell be some good shots then.... sorry for slackin
