At least get them right way up.
Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Not everybody's cup of tea but I like the look even if they are pseudo beadlockers and not the real deal. Arch extensions are a must if you don't want a tug off PC Plod like Fekete. Not something he wanted to do but a must. See threads below. http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic4044.html?highlight=pulled http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic5309.h...extensions How was the lift achieved and did you go for castor correction? Looks great! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

Looks just perfect.
I must admit to liking Mikes Blindos though! G My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years. |

They 12.5's?
I like the look, just not sure on the practicalities! Are they on 10" wide rims to? What offset you running? I'm wanting 35's at the moment, but dont really want to push out 12.5! Want 10.5, or at a push 11.5, just cant find anything except the Silverstone Extreme stuff (simex copies), and they only sit at 34 too. So not much over my current 255/85. |

Hi there
They are 33/12.5x15, I'm so chuffed with the look, now I'm just waiting for the arch extensions. Not sure on the offset but I got them from Tyres Direct, great service if you speak to a chap called Greg. I'm not worried about practicality because we have another car so it's just for hooning around. Click image to enlarge Good luck with your choice, I'll post more pictures when I've done the arches. Thanks for the amendment K9F, me and technology don't see eye to eye that's why a drive a TD5 Defender Life is one big adventure, that's why we have the vehicle for the journey. |

Offset is ET-50 as per the advert and yes they will be 10" width rims! By getting the offset right you can go wider without the need for wider arches. These are 305mm which equate to a tad over 12" with no spacers and no lift. Click image to enlarge If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |
