And to say you need to mod the tyres - that model can only drop to 18" so you could only go up one size in profile...

Only a knobhead would buy a 4x4 that can't take 17" rim's...

Don't mind Manny, he is sensitive about inches...

... I didnt get the impression that the driver
of the New Defender was an experienced
off-road warrior or mountain-man ...
Perhaps normally a meek operator of a far Lesser Brand ,
or worse Salesman of such ?

[Mad Manny]

Chas, he wasn't experienced, the wind was against him, the son was in his eyes, the other vehicles sharpened the rocks, the ref was biased..... you can make any excuse you like.
The bottom line is the new Defender is a great outdoors vehicle, but it should not venture too far off the well beaten track.
It's also shockingly unreliable.

Why did you feel it necessary to quote my post?

Methinks it's time we disabled the ability to quote posts...

Manny, I’m sure it isn’t a shock to ANYONE ON EARTH that a Land Rover is unreliable. Just saying.

Ok , so i change rims. 18 inch fits will have to use tyres on the rims till their end and then only get decent tyres.
