Hey all

thinking of changing from 18 to 16 inch wheels to make it easier to got to 33” tires. . I have seen the steel terrafirma wheels - not sure I am sold on them. What other 16” wheels are available for the 2004 Disco?

Alternatively if you have a recommendation on 33” tire that fits on an 18” OEM wheel, that would work for me as well.

 

Funny I was thinking about switching to an 18” from a 16” to open up more tire options. I am looking mostly at skinny all terrain tires and 255/85 seems to be the only option.

 

I'll have some standard Disco 16" alloys available shortly as I am going to 18", which is what my truck (04 HSE) originally had.
Let me know if your interested, i can post pictures.

 

Sure thing! I am interested!

 

steel wheels offset is going to push you into the fenders under full articulation pending the health of your suspension. Alloys with 285s will probably bind up on radius arms at full lock. If anything I think I'd run alloys and the smallest spacer just to not lose turning radius but avoid the weight of the steelies. Unsprung weight is a killer and it's magnified on an already over weight and underpowered vehicle.

 

Method makes a 16” I believe for the disco

 

I’m running 33” bfg on my 18” alloys.
quite Happy so far.

 

What size tires?

could be skinnier, I was after a wider track.
