Hi Guys,
I've finally decided to make some mods on a Disco 300 TDI '94, which was from my father and is "part of the family" since then, so I decided to come here since I need some help.
The idea is to prepare it for some touristic OffRoad courses as well as some trips/expedition, etc. Nothing extreme such as trial, etc.
Meanwhile I've been hearing some opinions and studying this subject so I've already installed:
- OME Nitrocharger Sport +2 Springs and Shocks (it was still with the original suspension which was quite saggy)
- TOUGH DOG RTC steering shock
- Front and rear steel bumpers (prepared for winch, anchorage, etc)
- Tow ball and rear ladder
And I'm also thinking on installing:
- Winch (WARN or SUPERWINCH)
- Snorkel (SAFARI)
- More adequate tyres for OffRoad (by now it has Michelin Latitude)
At this moment it's really about tyres I need your help. I want something more robust for this purpose but nothing with "bigfoot" looking (that ones getting too much out to the wheel arches).
I've been reading several opinions about this subject and was thinking on installing some BFG A/T ou M/T on size 245/75R16, 235/85R16 or 265/75R16 but I'm still trying to know what's the more adequate, which ones need more changes and which (camel cut, reinforcing, etc).
I kindly ask you opinion about brand (BFG, other), type (A/T or M/T), size and recommended wheel hubs (iron/aluminium?, brand, model, etc).
Any suggestion regarding the rest of the equipment will also be welcome.
Best regards and thanks in advance for any help you may provide.
