| New defender steel wheels and tyres on my 2005 D3 |
|
Currently running AT tyres on standard 18’s LR alloys. Have a 10 day trip coming up to Scotland and have considered a more Road bias tyre for the trip. So have been offered a full set of new white defender steelies with new Michelin Latitude tyres, Basically looking for feedback with regard to clearance, ride quality etc. Thanks.

Just keep the AT's , pointless getting road tyres for one trip plus the rims are ugly as hell.
