Not sure if that counts as no problems

I just went with extended bump stops with a 2" body lift, extended arches and all seems ok even on serious flex.

At the moment it has a 2" suspension lift.Soon as funds allow its out with the grinder, cut it in half and make it a trayback or really short pick up.Then on go the 35, s...

I'm running Maxxis Bighorns and theve been great. I've only got stuck when I've cross axle'd myself.

Unfortunately for you mine are 33" 12.5 15s so a photo won't do you any good.

How do you find them on the road?

I'm thinking about fitting the 764's to the disco 2, but in 235 85 16 size.

I've got 40mm between the end of the sliders and tyre, but suffer no rubbing even when off road.

Just measured my gap and have 80mm so looks like i have room for 85's....

They are good tyres and measure at bang on 33".

Only time I've really struggled with them is in deep thick mud.

Just measured my tyres and they are 30.5"....wonder how.much bigher 265/85 will be than your 255/85??

Excuse my ignorance, what is the difference between a body lift and a normal lift?

You can either raise the height by increasing the suspension which lifts everything barbthe axles or raise the actual body off the chassis which only raises the actual body of the disco and keeps the chassis etc the same height.

Mine measure at almost bang on 33". 265/85/16's are 33.7".

Just over a 1.5" lift with 85's as opposed to mine then.....tempting

What's the link to that web site as i am sure muds will have slightly more diameter to A/T's

Do it!

The website is https://www.4x4tyres.co.uk.

It is tempting, but so is a new 55" tv

I'm running 285's on mine with a 5" lift on freestyle alloys .... had no probs at all untill I fitted 30mm wheel spacers (was sick of having the turning circle of a barge) now I need to do a camel cut because the tyres have folded in the back wings
