chancer2 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Before you fit anything other than standard for that motor check with your insurance as they may treat it as a modification. ie. invalidate or extra premium. Hope this helps you. David. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchman Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 have you got the original steel rims on.....if so you will be looking at tubes in the tyres....dont be tempted to put tubeless tyres on those rims..its now illegal, and tubed tyres are getting expensive.......been there done it got the tee shirt.........i changed over to new steel rims at 19 quid each and went tubless......

mad1 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Yeah it's compleatly standard so it will be tubes? So it would be one of the combos avail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilberts1989 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 235/85/16 for defender is a good size, if you would like a wider tread go for 265/75/16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
