What is the biggest tyre for disco?

7.50 x 16 (plus camel cut)(I cannot comment on 235/85 having never tried that size)(alot of people will tell you it cant be done(because they know a guy)I did it....with tired suspension too(only place i ever had it rub was on rear mud flap brackets and only slightly and on full articulation).Originally i did it with series lwb rims (lost a bit of steering lock), but changed to wolfs (which got my lock back)

Dont bother with speedo recalibration....just get a gps and compare actual to reading ( you should find its more acurate than it was before), although im sure someone once mentioned changing the speedo drive gear can get it back to what it should be(but dont quote me on that)

Hi,

Check

in the galleries to see where to cut for 235/85. I relipped mine as I wasn't going to risk ripping my tyres to shreds with sharp edges.....

I run 31 x 10.5 x 15's on mine with little trouble, other than just scraping the wheel arches at fulll articulation ... standard (read quite tired (99k miles) springs and shocks, no lift. Keep umming and ahhing about cutting the wheel arches but cba really .. ;)

Speedo actually became more accurate. At 55 indicated GPS says I'm doing 55, at 70 indicated GPS says 69/70, at 30 indicated GPS says

29/30, beafore these tyres were added speedo over read by about 2 or 3 mph, ie indicated 30 was actually 27/28.

When we get a tuit and some spare cash we're going for a lift, springs, shocks, all the guards etc, but for now it seems to work fine... ;)

Thanks for the info. Gives me a couple of options. Now I need to go and look at tyre availability and prices.
