Nice, a mate of mine has a set on his TD5 and I quite fancy some black rims on mine. Have you got a pic of the whole 110 with em showing?

Andrew, what size MT did you fit ? Look like 255/85 ?
Is your 110 still on standard factory suspension ?

I have a set of Mack 5 with 255/85's one, Not tried them on the 07 defender as yet, but when they were on the old TD5 with standard suspension, there was not a great deal of clearance on the front wheel brows/arches

As above - there were some stories of the welding giving up on some of the Mach 5s and concern that they weren't upto the job.

Zu rims are fully tested and rated as far as I know - seem to be the better option.

I also run a set of specially made 18" Mach 5s that have been used extensively off road and I have had no problems.

Don't get me wrong - As I said, I'd heard stories of Mach 5 problems but thats as far as my knowledge of them extends.
