| Have a chance to purchase a nice of 15" wheels and a brand new tires 32/11.50/15. Fit the rims and they rub on the mud/dust shields ( I can trim those with a grinder). Another issue is this rims are 15x4.75(120.65) and our trucks are 120mm, do .65 of a mm make a difference?. The hub center is wider but I can always used hubcentric adapters if it is necessary to avoid vibrations. I like the idea of 15" tires, cheaper to purchase, more variety and more meat on the tires. My truck is lifted 2" already so I don't believe clearance will be a issue, I am not new to trucks and wheeling but never had the honor to own one of these cracker box(LR) but in all honesty great rig when I compare to a old International Scout and a Jeep TJ. Any imput will be appreciated...Pete | |

| i've never put 15's on any of my discos. it's always easier to borrow a spare rim off someone in a pinch when everyone you know runs 16's with the same pattern. I do know someone who put 15's on and he actually removed either the front or rear dust shield, can't remember which. sorry, can't help you regarding the 120.65

| What Ed said, we all pretty much run 16's (I run 265/75's without issue). I'd think .65mm would make enough of a difference because you don't want to put too much extra weight on these hubs if you don't need to. | |
