I haven't had a chance to test them off road yet cos my front prop needs some new UJs and I don't fancy anything breaking while I'm in the mud!
As far as road use goes (it's my main vehicle), they seem fantastic. Very little extra noise compared to the BFG ATs, and they are well-behaved right up to 90mph. Cornering and braking is spot-on etc etc so I'm impressed so far!

Yeah, it'll do that on the flat under it's own steam... I did have just over 110 down a hill once, but that can't have been good for it!

No, it had these wheels on without a lift when I got it. It had some Goodyear Wrangler road tyres on it, then I stuck some BF Goodrich All Terrains on it and it was fine. Then I lifted it!
The wheels are Range Rover wheels but then need hub adapters cos they're a different fitting to the standard Defender ones.
I've got a spare set of those alloys (in mint condition) and the part-warn BFGs which came off to go on eBay....

Yeah, it should be kicking out about 200bhp but would be interested to get it measured properly. It goes like **** off a stick though, which is good for me but not so good for tyres...
