Wheel spacers for new defender - options and photos?
I have 20" rims with the Goodyear AT tyres and they just sit a bit too far in for my liking. Are 30mm spacers all round what most people are going for?

Any photos would be welcome.

If you do a subject search for wheel spacers there is a comment and picture from someone using the 25mm spacer, and it does look good.

Hope that helps

Yep the first thing I did was search the forum and only found one thread with one defender L663 with spacers, but he is running different sized tyres from mine. I was hoping someone else with standard tyres would post a photo.

Looks great đź‘Ť I can't decide between 25mm or 30mm on the black 22" wheels. Car isn't due for another month so will have to wait before ordering.

Cheers Paul!!
Depends on the offset of the 22s. I think that 25 or 22mm would probably work slightly better on the front with my 20s. I get very slight rubbing when in access mode on full lock, but otherwise 100%

I don’t think my tyres are hanging out of the well with 30mm spacers, and no debris kicked up but the big mudflaps take care of that.

Sorry to hijack an old thread. Can I use 30mm rear and 25mm fronts on my l633 with 20" alloys? I will be adding extended arches too
