Anyway, here’s the link with image of the extension bolts and spacer. https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic65498.html |

I took the plate off them this evening to go to get powder coated by a mate, steps are in pretty good shape so no sense changing them yet

Yes, funny I put the wheel on and noticed it was still moving after I tightened up the nuts and realised I forgot the spacers. One thing I like is the grab handle on the Landrover wolf design that you can use to close the door Andy 2014 Fuji 110 SW LS3 https://www.defender2.net/forum/post751233.html#751233 2014 Corris 110 SW http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic40056.html My old Xtech 90 build.. http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic15681.html LS3 V8 build... http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic49051.html |

Thank Alex,
No I just drew the graphics up on Wednesday night after I seen their pic on Instagram and thought I would try it. We had the arches off for painting so with the hinges off it was too easy and turned out great. Twisted have been great to get stuff off. Everything arrived quickly and perfectly boxed up. With the wheels you get a nice new extendable breaker bar and socket which I didt get on the last set, wee things I know but makes a difference to me. Plenty more still to do though.

Twisted wheels take some beating , did you buy a tyre and wheel package from Twisted I just wondered how competitive they would be with that option?
What type and size tyres will you fit I noticed they had Cooper Zeon as an option on there website? 2016 Defender Landmark 90 2005 Defender CSW TD5 90XS |

Watching this with interest. Looks good and I'm in need of inspiration as there are sooooo many variations of things out there.

Hi,
Good colour combination and great interior 👍 Nice set of used Overfinch 18” alloys+ tyres for sale on eBay which might look good on your Landy! |

Cheers but my favourite wheel is the twisted 18" ET0.

Andy
I am also looking to purchase 18" twisted ET0 wheels soon but I am struggling to find a supplier that has BFG KO2 in stock. I am looking for 265/65 R18 size which I presume you have fitted? If these are the tyres you purchased may I ask where from? 2016 Defender Landmark 90 2005 Defender CSW TD5 90XS |

Yes that's what's fitted. It was just easier for me to have them fitted balanced and shipped all by Twisted. Around 3.5k for the 5. Andy

Ok thanks.
Your defender is coming along very nicely fuji white is not a colour I would have considered before but the changes you have made already have completely changed my view on it, I love it and its different. 2016 Defender Landmark 90 2005 Defender CSW TD5 90XS |

After checking your photos again, I agree 18” twisted alloys suit your Landy best 👍 |

Hi Andy - does this one already have rear electric windows? or is it part of the plan to install them?
