So what size tyres are going on this Discovery then?
37" or 265's?
Thats quite a difference
39" tyres are the future, I've seen it

I got to have alittle drive too, what a laugh!
The hardest part was getting in :lol:

Yee haa!!

FRIENDLY ADVICE

your being laughed at !!

your posts are like some crazy new spam.everyone is bitching at you but you persist in a way that will not help you.

eventualy a moderator will get fed-up and lock or delete the thread.

get sensible mate.

there are a lot of people here who probably wont even reply to your threads (even if they can help) .

There is an abundance of knowledge here and some experienced people i promise you.



some ideas for you......

putting massive tyres under a disco is not impossible......

with the right spring and body lift they will fit......

cut the outer bodyshell and fit some kind of arches will help it articulate a bit...

a 36 inch tyre is exactly the same size as a disco inner arch....

a 38 inch tyre fully inflated weighs nearly the same as 2 standard wheels and will not fit into the inner arch which will result in loss of articulation...

because of the weight and size of the tyres you will break cv joints..halfshafts..diffs..propshafts and probably rip  axle mounting points off...

now you may be able to get a cheap set of tyres and get it lifted cheaply but it will break things straight away....

breaking things will cost you money to replace them.....then you decide to either replace them with stock items or aftermarket items...this is where the money comes in....you cannot put massive tyres on the disco and stay within a cheap budget unless you intend to leave it on the drive as a decoration....


how much do you have to spend ???????

afink he was deprived of a monster truck toy when he was younger
so now he just wants to forfill his dream of a monster truck

go get a saxo and fit some 19 inch ally's wont have any problems then
no bust cv's from just turning into your drive
no snapped half shafts when pulling up onto the kerb
and youll actualy be able to get your other half in with out carrying step ladders

stop with this stupid fantasy  :roll:
everyone is bored of it, or just go bore someone else on another forum, cos believe me, we are being very pollite about this, so be thankfull for the mud club rules

this thread gets funnier and funnier, I thought you had a monster Disco but then I looked at your pictures and saw it was fairly run of the mill. Don't says its less standard than my Disco cause I don't care  :lol:

what exhaust have you got then as some shots in your gallery show 4 exhausts at the rear with so much over hang they'd catch when you off roaded, but its ok at they passed the MOT  :lol:  and then you have that picture thats been attached above?

I've gotta to be honest - if your sig was shorter then this thread would have been obly 4 pages long  :lol:  :lol:

you gotta be sensible and call it a day and admit defeat  8)
