Good choice Jay Boy,
I just ordered a set with the same tyres and will be collecting them Weds morning for my 90 which is due later this month. Is your 90 on std suspension and without spacers and are you pleased with them ? Mark |

Thanks Mark
its on standard suspension. I had spacers on but when i put the Overfinch on they were out by the 30mm so i had to take them off. It looked daft with them on. The drive is so much better |

^^ Hi Kraut, long time no see. Any plans to come back to the Defender crowd now that it is still possible to buy a new one? Or will you just keep G-classing away? In any case it looks like the Defender bug is still a bit there as we all see.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

They look SOOOO much better than the 235s that i have. Thanks for the pics. I've been thinking of changing to Sawtooths but the 265s look great on the dual finish. Do you have a picture from the front? Do the wheel spacers give you any wheel wobble? I had some before but they only lasted a week as I didn't like the vibration they gave through the steering; they were 'hub centric' too.
