Just fitted some 265/70/16 Recip M/T`s and Modulars on me Disco.
Also a 2" lift.
Gonna take it to an axle twister to see if the tyres catch the arches.
I will have to get the jigsaw out and trim the front of the spoiler, just catches on full lock.
How is she looking?

Only have the 1 pic at the mo.

You do get a bit more body roll, even more so with the 2" lift, obviously the centre of gravity has gone up.

Tyres are noisy, sounds like a military Landy.
But i`m not bothered, sounds good really.
I can always turn up the tunes when on the road.

Cheers.
It does look good, nice and agressive.
Have to get out on a pay n play, see what she can do.

Looking good, I am putting a 2" lift on mine on saturday with de-carbon shocks and braided steel brake lines, just had the BFG Mud Terrains (265/75/16) put on my alloys, OMG!!  didn't know they would be that big, a bit of trimming will be in order I think, don't look that big on my mates 90 :lol:
