No problem I'm in no rush. I like to learn about it first then do. This way I might keep myself out of Trouble LOL something that is hard to do.

Remember, the wider the tire the greater the turning radius, and Land Rovers suck in that regard to start with. That's why I"ve always preferred skinny tires. But in large part it depends on where you off-road and which is more important to you.
I know some people don't like the looks of skinny tires, but I've never cared what other people think about what I drive.

The wider tires are better with all this calliche and sand around here and the beach. Not many places to do any rock crawling and no mountains to run over lol.

Goose, i just put 33 12.50s on my D1 its lifted about 4" and I still had to do a little trimming.... I just had to trim about an inch and a half off the bottom back quarter panel up to where the body moulding is. Its not real noticable unless you know what your looking for.

im using all spring with 1" spacers in the front to level it out.. im not a big fan of body lifts but if you dont want to cut fenders that would be the way to go. That way your not having any driveline issues
