I have a new set of spacers that I purchased in hopes of switching my factory 19" LR4 wheels for some 18" wheels, allowing some larger tires. I don't have use for them at the moment. These are the exact spacers as described in Scott Brady's LR4 Overland thread. These allow 18" wheels to clear...
The BFG 265/65 R18's only very slightly rub in extreme turns (especially backing up), but I suspect its only a few millimeters and as they wear down over time, probably will not be noticeable. I love the slight lift that they give you and they ride really smooth and quiet.

I have read that possibly the 2008 LR3's have some updates and tweaks that make it one of the "best" years...
I am in the US, so pardon the different references to models...
I have a long relationship with rovers (love-hate, mainly love). Refurbished two Series II's years ago, owned three Disco II's (one was an actual Lemon - that was covered by law and bought back by LR). Then a nice 2006 LR3 that was...
