    Depends on if you want to trim your fenders... 245-75-16 will fit with minor triming.

    Hey Joey, Thanks for your insight on my problem. I don't mind alittle trimming... I would like to go 235/85/16 I think that's about 32" tall. Do you know if a 1" body lift would help fit the larger tires or would that just be lame...

    Land Rover also makes wheel spacers that will help rubbing when you cut the wheel hard, as you will 4 wheelin!

    I have BFG AT/KO 245 75 16 on my stock DI's.

    Back - was fine...not cutting...plenty of clearence

    Front - I had to trim a bit of the plastic front bumper ends (which I ended up just cutting off flush with the bottom of the front bumper anyway

    No lift....stock springs....looks great I think! Don't have any of those camber/caster or u-joint problems you get when you lift
