been offered a set of tyres in this size at a decent size.
just wondering if these tyres will fit my defender without modifications.
if it wont, what mods are required to make them fit?

cheers

Never heard of a 265/85.... You sure they aren't 265/75 or 255/85?

to be honest it probably is one of those.

cheers

this is mine with 255 85 16's on, plus a 2inch lift.

Might look a tad large without a lift - but do-able.9
