Additional photos of the differences between stock 20" setup and the new 18" off-terrain.

 

You are the only person online that has the solution for discovery sport A/T tyres... thanks for the share.
But please tell me, do you have any video or Photos off road and please share how are the tyres. I know you’ve had then long enough to give us some of you experience.

 

Nice setup. What is the model/brand of your replicas

 

They come from a company out of Montreal. You can find them at Replika.ca

 

Is this the one?

Those look freaking great! Do they run at all?

 

Was this ever answered? Do they rub at all?

 

Let us know if you see any change in MPG! Love the setup!

 

I'm expecting MPG loss for sure. Will let you know but I've already noticed about an average of 0.5L / 100K loss in normal city driving from the trip computer.

 

:crying:

 

Here are some additional close ups of the wheels and tires on the vehicle.

 

These are my 265/65 BFG KO2’s on stock 18’ wheels. Also got the Eibach lift kit. On mid, ruts and rocks yesterday, didn’t bottom out once for the first time since I’ve had the vehicle (first drive after lift). Stoked

 

O

really Nice!
so presently I have 255/65r17 on mine
But if you managed to put 265/65r18 I think I can fit 265/70r17 🤔

 

Did put the lift because you wanted or with this tire size was necessary?

 

I wanted the additional ground clearance and it also enabled me to get the larger tyre on which also gave me another inch clearance so probably about 3 inches in total. It's made a huge difference.

 

I also bought the lift kit, but I havent installed it yet. My goal is to put on 265/65/18, so I'm REALLY happy to hear you could do it.
I took the parts to an off-road shop to get their pricing and opinion on install and he mentioned he was unsure what it would do to alignment until he installs it and see what room it leaves for camber adjustment. He mentioned he isnt sure if it would "max out" the camber adjustment until he installs it, but if it did, then the wheels would go from a negative or even camber, to a positive. Which he mentioned could/would cause handling issues around corners, as well as uneven and faster wear on the tires.
Since you installed both (and I'm THRILLED to see someone else did this too!), have you noticed any issues with alignments, camber, tire wear, engine strain, power, etc.? Anything?
I have a 2018 Disco Sport and I'm going for all the same improvements you mentioned. I'll eventually add a roof rack, lights, and a bumper/bull bar with winch.

I appreciate any information you can share!

 

I’m putting on 255/55/18 BFG KO2 onto my 2018 disco sport. The tyre shop advised against 17” alloys because the brake callipers are designed for min 18” alloy. I was split between 235/55/18 but from feedback here 255/55/18 fit stock 18” alloys.

i traded in my stock 20" and went for the 255 55 18 BFG KO2 .
What i learnt is that 17" can be an issue as the brakes are designed only for 18,19 and 20s.
I feel BFG's look the best and are the gold standard of AT tyres but there are cheaper alternatives out there. Coopers and Toyo are also great choices and if anyone fits them please post them here

 

How does it ride and does the air suspension work still ok? I know they sell aor suspension delete kits to go to a standard shock setup but because my mom is super old. I love being able to squat the car for her to get it. How was the overall noise? One thing I don't like about the 21in rim and tires was the road noise and the chatter it made going down highways or roads in and around Eastern Michigan and up North. So I would think that going to 18in with thicker treadmill has to help. Can you still get these rims?

 

@meutragic you may be on the wrong forum because the car does not have air suspension.
