Default tires

Mostly for camping, and looks. Not really trying to mud in it or anything especially since I've finally mechanically got it going pretty good, fingers crossed!

My 04 Disco has only a 2" lift currently and have no issues with the Cooper ST/maxx 265/75-16 (32" tire without weight of vehicle on them) and have done fare enough wheeling over decent size rocks over the past two years.

If you don't want to modify anything I'd throw some 245's on there. No camel cut no nothing. What type of wheeling are you trying to do?
Where are you with lift? I set out to ask this exact same question when I came across this thread.

Are the spacers you used hubcentric on both ends?

Any issues with that? I know some vehicles are very sensitive to lug vs hub centric spacers. Others don't seem to care.

No issues thus far but make sure your wheel bearings are serviced regularly cause the whee spacers put a little more stress on them if they are spaced out
