Silverline Black Sport Alloys

Does anyone have the Silverline 8 x 16 Black Sport Alloys with 285-75x16 mud terrains

I am thinking of getting a set for my 130

Thanks

Looks like these will be my next purchase with either 285-75 x 16 Mickey Thompson MTR's or Cooper STT's

2011 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Fuji White

i have the 18" ones.

i drove my 90 for a couple of weeks on the standard wheels and tyres before making the change.

handling is so much better with the lower tyre wall from the 18's

2009 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Stornoway Grey

Here's a photo of them being fitted, I deliberated for a long long time over which wheels to buy as I am not a great fan of the spokey Zu or Mach 5 look, nor anything over blingey. Totally happy with my choice, great looking wheel and a great wheel and tyre package deal by Silverline, who now have a photo of me on their website. And yes Zag, you are right, they are 265 / 75 / 16 and I also went for a zero offset wheel to push them out from under the arches without the need for spacers - and yes it does now cover the side of the car in Mud 24/7!!

Nice

I've had Zu Rims on previous LR and wanted something different this time.

Going to go for zero offset with 285's to fill rear arch on my 130

Simon, here's a photo of mine axle twisting, nothing fouled, but it looked might close!! Just wondering whether the 285's and zero offset will give you any issues?? PS. That is not me behind the wheel!
