Pictures please of 18" Twisted alloys with tyres
If it's already been done please let me know where to look, if not, please post up pictures of your Defender fitted with 18" ET10 Twisted alloys and let me know which tyres you have fitted - Thank you Bow down

These will be replacing my 5 x Genuine Sawtooths fitted with MTR's, four of which have travelled 2400 miles and the fifth has not been on the road ....

Thank you, I'll go take a look.

Looking at the Twisted site they seem to offer their trucks with 285/65/18 or 265/65/18 BFG AT's and I wondered what the two sizes looked like fitted and what other tyre choices there were ?

Yes, that's a nice look Likeomg Thumbs Up

What size tyres are yours and is your truck lowered ? (I'm presuming your wheels are ET10 ?)

for quick reference, they say use 285's on 110's and 265 on the 90's

i went with 285

the truck as you say is lowered about 1" to get it to sit level

Are the wheel nuts specific to these alloys ?

yeah, and a locking wheel nut set isn't cheap either
make sure they send you 5 locking nuts if you buy 5 wheels, there a little cheeky and only send 3 nuts for the 5th.

Sorry for the slow reply... Being in the middle of a ocean isn't ideal.

Just call them up and they will sort you out.
