wheel and tyre question
« on: February 25, 2006, 19:13:43 »
just bought some insa 235/70 R16's (only got 2 as didnt have the cash for the full set so will get the others next pay day)
Will they just go on the standard huds (there on disco 5 spoke alloys)  as have heard a rumor that I need to adjust the bump stops amongst other things?

Is this true and whats involved.

Oh I'll have a set of disco steel wheels with split of snow tyrs and AT's up for sale soon if any ones intrested
no sensible offers refused

235's were an option, not a standard fitment. 205's were the standard fitment, ;)

I fitted 235's on mine and it does need the stop adjusting as the tyre rubs on the radius arm on full lock . . . . .
