RKServicing · Jul 11, 2013

38" tyres. Mod wheels, spacers. And pro comp + 2 springs n shocks. 2" body lift

Nice job! Im sure Evil will be along soon to say 'better off using properly offset wheels rather than spacers'

None the less really nice Disco!

RKServicing · Jul 11, 2013

Thanks very much. Makes it worth the endless **** it gives me.

Tasteful? It's a KA

thanks.

sprogthedog · Jul 11, 2013

Best use for a Ka in my opinion.

What tyres are they make etc they look small for 38's tbh

jai_landrover · Jul 11, 2013

they look like 285's to me!

RKServicing · Jul 11, 2013

They're hankooks. 315/75/16. Measured a tad under 38"

They look smaller because of the 8" wide rims instead of the 10 they would best suit and this also stops them filling the 75mm arches like they should.

they don't look small atall in the flesh.

jai_landrover · Jul 11, 2013

Maybe because tey are so wide,

What diffs have you gone for to get the gearing back

RKServicing · Jul 11, 2013

Standard diffs. Tfr box.

I'll wait for the tfr box to pop then go for a fender box.

But to be honest. Apart from pulling off when towing. It's not a lot different.

The blue looks awesome in the sunshine. One day mine might see the light of day...

jai_landrover · Jul 11, 2013

Really I have 37 inch tyres measured dia tyres. I had a 1.22 tranny box and 3.54:1 diffs and it was horrendus to drive. Feels really heavy Low range was god awful decending chaplegate 1st low. I decided after 2 minutes I'd be swapping my diffs out it was really really awful. I have 4.7:1 diffs now and 1.003:1 tranny box and its lovely in low box and high its spot on again. I wasn't getting into 5th gear on the motorway and if I did if it saw any small incline it would die off 65mph was a pita 4th too low 5th too high.

Wouldn't go back for anything!! only thing is the propshafts are spinning faster. For trialling in low 1st it just creeps along nicley high box it will sit at 65 bang on. I havent tried it towing yet but my 90 usually full of tools and will be towing a trials motor and hefty trailer with spares and tools. If its too high I'm half tempted to go to a 1.22 again but we shall see.

A couple pics hehe.
