Question re tyres

Can you put 235/85r16 on a disco 1 without a lift kit ? Or does it require a 2" lift ? ... If not whats the biggest I can fit comfortably without a lift but with 1" spacer ... Thanks

Answers in green if you're colourblind.

Theres a sticky thread with everthing you need to know at the top of this page

just because nobody else has:


DO A BLOODY SEARCH FFS!!!!

never been asked so there will be no info to be found by searching

You lot really don't like tyre questions do you.

I think they have been very easy on you Les!

Tyre questions have destroyed many a good man on here before now.
