I am putting 31x10.5x15 Cooper S/T's on our '91 Discovery but expect that I'll have to cut guards and install flares (tyres too expensive to take risk!). Would be interested in any comments, experiences and recommendations (incl. types of flares available, suppliers & prices)

Been there, done that with a 95 4 door. Truckster, you should know that
suspension won't make any diff. to tyres rubbing and infact makes it worse cos of the extra travel. I had
mine trimmed and lip re-rolled at a panel beaters for $100 a side including some painting. Looked factory!
I assume you are talking about the rear lower rear quarter panels cos thats the only place that 31's will bind.
Pay the man.

Thanks Ferret. Would be interested in contacting the pb who did yours with a view to getting
mine done if they're handy to me (Melb). Otherwise they might be able to "guide" a local pb if they're unsure of the job
