16" rims from D1 2001 - Land Rovers Only

Kaz · 07-18-2008, 12:46 PM

would they fit my D1 ''''95
and if they fit - they are 255/70/16, I have 235/70/16 on the trk now- would that pose a problem?
I guess not, the difference would be 14mm in height, if my calculations are correct..

D1 wheels are interchangeable between years of D1's, but not with any DII's.

Well..I wasn't really sure what he was asking, since the question was about wheels, and then he was giving tire sizes.

amschnellsten · 07-19-2008, 12:49 PM

its not that hard to understand him. If the wheels are from a d2 they will not fit due to bolt pattern. The tires will fit on your old rims though and you should be fine clearance wise.

oh and the 255/70 will rub a bit on tight turns.

will they really, or you're pulling my leg?
The difference in hight is 14mm..
By how much I can safely increase the tire hight on a stock car?(D1)

of course, my bad..

I have this size, 255/70 16 A/T, on my DI with no rubbing.

The difference in size, from the 235/70 to the 255/70 is 6-15/32 to 7-1/32 which is 9/16 or 14.2mm approx.

ArmyRover · 07-25-2008, 07:41 AM

I found that I would get minimal rubbing on the radius arm with the 255/70 on a RRC so I'm sorry to say I assumed that would be the case with the DI as well.

thanks for responding and clarifying.

Kaz · 07-27-2008, 06:17 PM

sorry , a repeat..

I need to correct myself I noticed that my old tires were 265/70 so the 255 are probably good to go
