A tyre can settle on the rim after a while and put the balance out a bit. I always take my cars back to the fitters for a rebalance after a couple of thousand miles

I run BFG MT in 255/85 flavour.... great size, not silly wide that covers the side of the vehicle in poo all the time, and gives good ground clearance.


As Cooper don't make ST in 255/85 anymore, would a BFG MT in same size go OK (on steel rim, as a spare in emergency - or could I get away with my existing 235/85 as "space saver" spare to get me home).

Otherwise the rare Toyo Open Country 255/85 seems the only other option, if I can find one. Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

In that time I put £4,592.81 of fuel* in the tank (an average of £11.78 per day) and covered 19068 miles.

* Which means that £2,847.54 of that was tax.
Then there's the RFL and IPT, then VAT on everything including the RFL and IPT, all money used to pay all this tax has already been subject to the income tax. Big Cry I reckon I must own a cottage hospital by now.[/quote]
