Anyone know off hand what tires the D110's come with new? I know they are 7.5R16's, but don't know what brand or tread style. Thanks. Jeff |

I'm sure it varries from region to region. Here in the US I thought they were BFG's 265/75x16's. |

Thanks. These are being offered to me off a UK truck being imported into the US at the end of this month. The pictures are fuzzy, but based on what I can see and the options offered, they look like they are 7.5R16 Michelin XPC's. The price is right and I get 5 brand new D110 steel wheels. Just debating if I want to put these on the truck or not. I need new 7.5's for my IIA and I could use steel wheels for my wifes Disco... Jeff |

1993 D110s in the US came with the Michelin 4x4 tire, in 7.5x16 size on the 5.5x16 white steelies (22mm offset). I am 99% sure, still 1% to go |

If it's an ex-MOD Defender, they will most likely be Michelin XPC's. |

Jeff, I'm pretty sure the NAS 110's came with the Michelin X tire in size 7.50 R16 with tubes, and fitted to the 6.5x16 "130" wheels and not the 5.5x16 "Series" wheels. The 130 wheels are riveted together and are not airtight. |

I'm curious as to what I find when I go to Port Hueneme to inspect them before I buy. They're coming off a brand new 2002 UK truck. Still has the plastic on the seats. Can't wait to check it out. Jeff |
