Meanwhile on the Halfords site....
I was on the Halfords sockets and accessories page and there's a photograph at the top of the page of an oil stained bloke kneeling besides a 90/110/Defender shod with Goodyear G90 tyres jacked up with a hi lift jack. Do you think he's a member or is it just an imposter acting the part? Funny how they thought a Land Rover owner would get dirty and need sockets Whistle

He must have been working outside in the rain for a while as his T-shirt appears to have shrunk.

Looks like the hi-lift is a prop - I suspect there is an axle stand or another jack under the axle from the way the wheel sits. Bought myself a Halfords professional socket set when I bought the 90, it's a good piece of kit.

That wheel is sitting a little odd, your right Roddy.

I like the G90's. Did a great job off road on an old 90 I had.
