    215/85r16 duratracs are narrow...but they work.


    One of my favorite thing about Land Rovers is they always look like they're on safari. When I think of safari vehicles I do not think of wide tires.

    True. . . narrow has that classic old school look:

    Even 265/75R16 is starting to look a little wide. . . From Scott Brady's article on tires, skinny has a strong practical side as well: http://www.expeditionswest.com/resea...tion_rev1.html
