I have 265 65 18s on mine there is a slight problem, on full right hand lock in reverse the front left hand wheel rubs on a bit of plastic inner wheel liner, going forward it still rubs but you don’t notice it lol
The left hand front wheel area has the exhaust from the FBH poking down so the plastics intrude a little more.
Have driven around my little estate on access height using full lock with no problems but never been on the bump stops.
Normal every day driving no problems, off road in off road height no problems even on full cross axle. Discovery 3 HSE 07

| Ok another question on tires |
|
So 2005 D3.
Thinking of going with a j rod 2.5” lift rods, and stick some 275/65 18’s under it.
Hoping to get going toward doing some trails next spring most likely.
Will this setup work well. V8 SE, building a roof rack, installing a CB or shortwave, and building or buying some sliders among other mods not thought up yet.
Right now tires are the current expense. 2005 Land Rover D3, 4.4L V8, Maya Gold Metallic
