I installed front ABS sensors in the back (much longer) so need to extend those, but if they were the OEM rear units yes I would suggest extending them if you plan on fully flexing your suspension.

Stock suspension and tires on the truck on the right.

The price was right and I've been really pleased with how the truck rides and handles.
@T-rex do you have any more pics from the side? This looks to be the exact look I’m going for.

Default 285/60/18 or other 18’s for a 2” lift

I’m looking at running a 2” lift with 18’s no 16’s quickly available locally.

Is rubbing running the General Grabber ATX 285/60/18’s

or what’s you preferred 18’s for all conditions?

I would like MT’s

If you’re going for MT’s, I think you should try harder to get 16” wheels. The MT’s are for fairly serious off roading and the extra sidewall on the 16’s will be a big plus when you air down.

Default Best looking stock alloys?

So Range Rover 92-06 will fit, Discovery 99-04 will fit, correct?

Which ones look the best with a lift?

Your Discovery years are correct, but I’m pretty sure only the P38 Range Rover (94-01) wheels will fit. Range Rover Classics were also made until 96 and I don’t think those wheels fit. I’m also pretty sure that the stock Disco 2 and P38 wheels were identical (I have both vehicles and the 16’s on them look the same).

RRC, D1 or defender wheels will not fit.

Were hurricanes just 18” or were there 16” like the 6 spoke comets?

Just 18”. I am in a similar dilemma as you. I traded for 16” but then realized that I had more options for sizes in all terrain tires vs MT. So back to 18” and going with Toyo AT3s.
