i bought alan woods 90, always wanted a defender, and it was too good a price to miss!

so far i'm really impressed by how car- like a drive it is, last time i was in a landrover was 20 yrs ago!

Off road they are great. On Road you need to drive carefully as they aren't fantastic. They are also very noisey on road. I kid you not, It sounds like you have a police helicopter hovering overhead.

I personally love em but I still wouldn't buy em again. Purely cos of the road noise. Next time around i'll be going for the sahara's.

I wanted 265/75/16 saharas. I could only find em in 235/85/16. I went for the special tracks as they were my second choice and I could get them in the size I wanted.

There are 2 drawbacks from having these tyres. The first as I have already mentioned is the noise. The second is that although they are great offroad. They are like the wheels on a paddle steamer. I recently went offroading with robint and buckshot. Both theit landys were dirty. Mine was plastered. They were giving it a bit of welly. I was taking it easy. Where the tyres are right up to the edge of the arch they literally throw the mud up the sides. If you like em and want to go for the 265's instead of 235's I would recommend fitting wider arches.
 
I went for 265/75/16 traction tacks on silver spokes

If you think 'your landrover getting dirty' is a disadvantage to having bigger wheels then you need to get your head checked! :)
