WHEEL SIZE QUESTION
« on: July 01, 2005, 21:58:24 »
can someone tell me the width of the old range rover voque alloys, are they 6.5j or 7j. would they be o.k to fit 235/85 16 tyres too?
with a 2" lift on a discovery would you need to cut the arches away to fit the above tyres?
thanks for your help Neil....

They'll fit on a lifted Disco II, as that's what I'm running, not sure about a DI, I have a feeling they might be a bit big, as they're pretty damn close to the front of the front wheel arches on the DII.

I'm runing 235x85's on a Disco 1 with 2'' lift trimed arches on the rear
and a winch bumper on the front... It will catch the front bumper and
rear arches if you don't get the jigsaw out.

Have you got a Disco now Neil ??
