285 75 16 BFG KM3 fitted to Twisted alloys on my USW
Saw these advertised on Facebook Market place for £550 so snapped em up

It was advertised by a lad working at Lan Trac 4x4 in Shaftesbury Dorset. So he offered to fit and balance as well for £50 on top and what a great job he did, rock steady on the way home compared to shaking my way down on worn KO1's!

A delightful garage full of Series Landies being rebuilt and a busy place too catering for D3/D4/Defenders all ages.

The tyres look fantastic on a standard height USW, no rubbing yet on steering lock but then they are fitted to ETO Twisted alloys

Very impressed with the rock solid and good road handling on the 75 mile drive home, no noticeable increase in road noise.

Agreed, very smart. They have a similar shoulder profile to the Cooper ST Maxx, which I've always preferred the look of over the BFG KOs Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....
