Default Disco II tires

I was wondering what is the largest tire i could put on my 2000 Disco II without a lift. I would also appreciate info on where i could find a 2" lift and info on how hard they are to install.

I have 16" wheels and i dont do a whole lot of off roading, some but nothing extreme.....YET !! I really want something that looks good and if i do decide to go off roading that will hold up well. But unfortunatley most of my driving is on the road. I am thinking about putting as 2" lift on it in the near future.

put the lift on first so if you go to a larger tire it will fit.
If you are not going to a lift, look at a 245/75/16 as about the tallest tire you can go to without rubbing.

I run 265's, but it will require a lift and you will loose just short of 2 MPG.
My 2 cents worth.
