Many thanks, that looks fantastic, and it looks like if 285 fit ok then 265 shouln't be much if a problem

Tbh, I think the look is just right, as some LR,s look a bit ott with too much offset

Does anybody have any good photo's of a Defender on Wolfs with 265/75/16's fitted please?

This shows 265s on Boost wheels to give you a rough idea of how much more the tyres fill the arches. No spacers.

I have just seen an Electricity Board 110 fitted with Wolfs and 265/75/16 KM2's obviously their suppliers don't see an issue fitting 265's to Wolfs - they looked fine. For what it's worth there was also another defender with Cooper STT's on, and they looked far better than the BFG's

The chap who lives down the road from me works for the EB, and his 110 has BFG KM2's on the front, and STT's on the back. on silver 8 spokes.

He tells me he much prefers the handling of the BF's, and off road he rates the BF's much more too. says the STT's "are cr.p"

2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Tonga Green

So driving a truck with 2 of each makes him an expert eh?

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
