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.

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...

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
