Sticking out depends on your wheels and the depth of dish - steels stick out further than naff disco alloys.

Theoretically it could fail MOT, but lots pass with em on.
Check yer speedo against a pratt-nav - it won't be too far out. If you like, you can stick some little labels on yer speedo at 30, 40, 50, 60.

na, 265/75 i feel is the largest you want to go without lift. looks good and gives good articulation without rub and they are not too wide either.
its a good size choice

Oh and another thing...
Paddocks has got "To fit Defender with disc brakes on rear" in its wheel and tyre packages...
But nothing about brakes about its wheels.
I assume mine with drums'll be fine, but would hate to get my nice new shiny wheels a bfg muds only to find that I need to change the back brakes before I can go and play...

if you really want to know how accurate yo speedo is - then recalibrate it against a sat nav. drive at 50 - see wot the sat nav says, write up a convertion sheet, stick it on your dash and adjust your driving accordingly.
