Hello I'm Paul from E Yorkshire I live east of Hull, I have a Defender 90 1991. 200tdi I've had my landy for about 8 years and done a fair bit of work on it. Not been off roading for a while now but ready to start again. Look forward to getting some tips and advice.

Have a search mate, you asked possibly the worst question you could possibly have asked
As a rule, if you think of a question, do a quick search first, there's likely to be previous threads answering it. Obviously if the information is out of date, or you don't understand something, ask away, otherwise the natives end up answering the same questions time after time This is without a doubt the best site for help and a laugh, but you need a Rhino skin overcoat at times

:welcome2: to the mad house

Good answer, you'll soon get the hang of it, this place is a bit one on it's own

Fooking natives THEY must be in a good mood or SOME OF YOU are sleeping. :hysterically_laughi:hysterically_laughi

What do you want with them. Is your suspension stock or is it lifted? Is it a daily driver? and how far is it driven daily ?They bigger the tyre the more hp is needed and less MPG. Plus it buts a big strain on your breaks and drive shaft, axles and UJ's as well as transmission.

Lot to think about............. OH and :welcome:

Thanks for your advice, I need bigger wheel rims for the 265 / 75 tyres, mine are standard size for landy 16 x 6 so I need 16 x 7 or 16 x 8, I'm only using my landy for off roading and local runs, and in winter around here you need them.
