Will do Pete once i get these ugly 22" wheels off it,,,lol.ps you dont have any 17" alloys for sale ???

Hello George, and a fine "Upstanding " name that is !

Glad you are here, I think I did see your post on the dark side, but now you are here, I am sure folk will be a whole lot more friendly.

22 inch !!!!!!!!, I hope your not responsible for defacing it with them.

The standard 17 inch 6 spoke that your looking for are not the cheapest to buy.
You may find that buying some aftermarket 17 inch alloys are a cheaper way to go.

Took me a while to find a spare set for my winter/mud tyres.

Nice wheels and tyres Graham,That is exactly what i am looking for,What size are the mud tyres ?.
No im not responsible for the 22" wheels,i burst one of the 22" tyres the first day i had it and had to regretably buy a new one for wheels i hate.

About an inch taller than standard.

George - I'm in Edinburgh if you want to have a look at 265/70x17s on standard rims on a LC5 - Cooper STT muds, and some BFG ATs waiting to go on.

Cheers

Gary-I would really like to have a look at them fitted ,would save a lot of time and money finding what the best size is ...

Ok - am around and about on the weekend prepping for Lincomb so give me a shout and I can meet up - maybe Harthill or somewhere 1/2 way or so?

Hi George,

Now arn't you glad you found this happy forum?

Some great guys here, some real leg pullers to have a laugh with, and some of the comments have me falling off this 3 legged chair some times !

Any way, I guess the "Lincomb Land Cruiser event" is too short notice for you,,,,,,,,,

Or is it?
