1" - 2" or no lift at all????
Vehicle depicted has had a lift I reckon. Give Twisted a call, they will be able to tell you whether the vehicle has had any lift at all and anwer your query at the same time as they always fill the arches of the vehicles they sell invariably! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Last pick - sheltered life my 4r5e! With that statement you remind me of a sceptic tank that requires emptying - ' Full o' Censored !' Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

Been to some of the same places, drunk the same Labbatts Blue undoubtedly, maybe Screech Rum, ate Caribou and sufferred the same hangovers! Sheltered life! Who you trying to kid, seen the pictures on Facebook too!

Off back to Lyneham, touch base later in week! Hopefully wheels be here for next w/end! Thumbs Up If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

I have this size tyre on 18 " boost alloys and can confirm they fit ok. I do have anti roll bars so might nor get full articulation.

Yes in two sizes, 265/65x18 and 285/65x18, very nice tyres on a Defender.

the stornaway gray 90 is a nice little setup with the RR alloys im going to go with standard springs with blistain shocks and a set of anti roll bars should be a nice road manner then
