i run my tyres at 30pis all the time, same 265/75/16 Insa Turbos


How did you get on with rubbing on the arches?? so far iv ripped the front bumper off to jsut leave the metal one and thats solved part of it now i just get rubbin on full lock. but up to now havnt been off road so im wondering where else and how much ill get in the arches. i also have a 2" lift kit on.

cheers
 
I just sold a disco with them tyres on.

That was 4" lifted and heavily cut away.

Only rub was full lock, it needed 30mm wheel Spacers or steering stop adjustment.

Run at 30psi for all round, drop to 20 for pay n play days, obv need to reinflate for drive home.

you need to do the camel cut to the rear arch and adjust your steering lock stops to stop the rubbing.

It also depends what wheels you have fitted the tyres too, modulars/wellers etc have a bigger offset than standard landy steels/alloys
 
Camel Cut?? iv heard about the steering lock thing which will get sorted maybe on sunday

If you do a quick search for camel cut it will show you how to do it. Just a case of cutting a little of the rear panel away to allow for articulation of the larger tyres.
 
if you are running those tyres and going for a play I would do it before you go out. any articulation will catch the arch and either bend it or could possibly damage the tyre.

very simple to do, did mine with a 4" grinder and file but can be done with tin snips if you want to be a bit neater.
