I'm lifting my discovery2 2 inches and was wondering what would be the best option for a bigger size tyre to fill the arches on standard alloys. Was thinking 265/75/16 but would they catch? Also after a bit research the 265 or 255/70/16 could be a better choice due to cost.

Cheers. Checked out the sticky and it says for discovery1, will this be the same for the 2. Only reason is I have been told that for one o the tyres sizes which says body mods are needed on the link, no mods are needed for the 2.
And yes, new glasses sound essential!
