    33inch tyres on a Discovey

    I know but I can't afford them! Open to donations though. Out of interest what's the biggest that's been fitted on standard axels?

    90 painted with first coat Hmmmm ??

    Was going to paint mine seca blue. IMO you need lots of black detailing to make it work. Big black modulars, big arches and roof rack or cage "mans" it up.

    Discovery freestyle alloys x5

    Ill get some tomorrow. But to be honest they are just normal silver freestyle alloys in pretty good nic. Like I say tyres were all fine when in use then I left it sitting a few months and they all went down. Maybe get away with just sticking some wind in them.

    Finally back on topic! The bottom rear corners of both the arches and wings will have to be cut. If I can follow the cut into a gradual flare to allow room for the top of wheels it should look pretty cool. Depending on how much it articulates due to having +5inch shocks I may have to fit...

    Of course I make it sound glamorous, I'm on my way to my dream job! The only reason I pointed it out is Dr evil told me he was a student engineer.

    I said I've done my degree and work for a successful team. I'm not trying to say I'm chief engineer for mclaren and know everything. I was making a point. Thanks for the advice given I will take it into consideration. As for all this "tyre threads are a no no" and you need to search stuff I...

    Replying with sarky comments is only going to make the situation worse. The next person that is wanting to do this is going to search, find this thread with 6+ pages off pointless crap (along with many others) then submit another thread!

    What do you mean with "threads like this one"? I've searched and searched and not found what im after. Nobody has proven me wrong by showing me one. I have a low post count as I search before starting threads. There is no thread I can find where somebody has done what I'm wanting to do. Yes...

    Feel better now?? Now when I get chance I'm gonna have a go at getting these to fit with the bare minimal cutting and not fit plastic over arches. Ill do a bit of rolling and flaring so the wheels tuck under nicely retaining a factory(ish) look. Once done ill put up a thread with pics as its...

    16inch standard 5 spoke alloys. All straight and not in bad condition. They have been sitting for a while and all gone flat but was fine when in use. Cheap at £50 collected from Birmingham. Pretty sure they are worth that scrap!

    Sorry, didn't see that! Thanks. Wheels aren't on yet but once I throw them on ill work out whats what. Ive got an arch roller knocking around somewhere from my drifting days so ill give it a whirl.

    Yes, make the hole bigger so the wheel fits inside. This is a land rover forum with 1000s of members who have done many things and know of many products on the market. I thought it was worth while asking the question to save me fcking about as im way too busy. I wont make that mistake again!!

    Why work something out myself if it has already been done?! Now that would be pointless. The more obvious way for me is to ask people who have already gone down that route for ideas that are proven effective then work off them. No point in re inventing the wheel is there?

    Haha, nice. Well I was once one of those and now work for a very successful F1 team. I can assure you now that unhelpful, cocky idiots do not make successful engineers. Has your uni not taught you anything?!
