I found that I kept grounding out because the ruts were too deep,most people have tall tyres nowadays so you get stuck up on your diff if you've got the standard disco tyre size.
So, my advice would be a 2" lift and some 265/75/16 tyres( you won't get the tyres on without a lift) and this is what you get

And that is where the Biggest problem with green laning starts and why they are getting closed left right and centre.
They start off ok then some one comes along with mud tyres and makes ruts, then the next person comes along with bigger mud tyres and makes bigger ruts then some one comes along with 33" Extreme tyres and makes HUGE ruts the Walkers get ****ed off and jump up and down write to their MP and get a a TRO slapped on the lane.
If every one just stayed with AT's on lanes and saved their big mud pluggers for pay and play they would be in a better condition and we'd all get to use more of them.
And as it said in LRO a while back if you need monster tyres and a winch to go green laning should you really be there in the first palce??

of course they the only ones that dig big holes.........
or were the pics posted earlier of Motors dugin up to the sil's photoshoped?....any tyre will wear a grove in soft ground... i seen many mud tyres just creap throuh a greenlane, and AT's/Roads throw mud every where.....
NO not only Mud tyres make ruts any tyre will make a nice big rut if you sit there spinning them up, the point I was making(the one you thought was bollocks) is that if every one starts using bigger and bigger and more and more aggressive tyres then where does it stop ?
admittedly not all of the damage walkers kick off about is due to green laners some is due to farm vehicles and tractors but they have trouble distinguishing between the tread pattern of a John Deere and a Disco on 285/75/16 special tracks.
But then again this is all frankly irrelevant as long as people such as yourself think it's "bollocks" and carry on destroying the lanes with extreme tread tyres there won't be any left for anyone to use so they will be fine for pay and play and that will be the only place left for 4x4 drivers to go and that will truly be BOLLOCKS

even though you've contradicted yourself ^^^^ that is the reason the lanes are closing, people with no respect for the countryside not the tyres they choose

Ah I seemed to have overlooked the golden rule of forum etiquette. . . you have a higher post count so you quite clearly know more about any given subject than any body with a lower post count..
Ok seeing as you can only understand if small words are used and take things literally and don't seem able to use a certain amount of lateral thinking.
maybe I should have named only the tyres make, model and size that are damaging would this have been more acceptable for you?
I fully understand that it's the use of the vehicle i.e. wheel spinning going "off pieste" and the like.
BUT why should anyone need huge aggressive tread patterns to go green laning ?

just because I quoted you didn't mean I was singling you out individually and I'm sorry if you thought it was an attack on you and your choice of tyres I was being very general
very true !
and I'm not saying this as an excuse but if a driver of a standard disco on standard size tyres drives a lane where another user or two has been through with large/aggressive tyres and left larger ruts that would beach his standard car, he may decide rather than drive through the ruts to take a detour around them effectively going off the lane, then another car follows then another until both sets are heavily rutted and full of mud/water.

Coming in your ears.
a car with huge tyres will not make ruts any deeper than a car with small tyres, assuming the ground is good, as is the majority of lanes.
ok you might come across a boggy area when laning, but if we're being pedantic you shouldnt drive it anyway!
the problem with laning and aggressive tyres is that spinning it up nmakes a big mess, whereas road tyres just spin.
i went laning recently with a 90 on stock size bfg muds, a 110 with 33x12.5 muds, a disco on stock size insas, a 90 on 285/75 inss and mine on 33x12.5 muds
not one of use make any different track to the other, because we didnt need to spin it up at all, as we werent getting stuck.
its daft to say that you shouldnt go abobe stock size on lanes becuase the majority of the bad ruts are made by tractors, which have huge tyres as we all know.
tbh an aggressive tyre would probably cause less trouble driving through crefully than the same car on stock tyres trying its best to get through the same section guns blazing.
the loud pedal ****s up green lanes, not your tyre choice.
cheers
