Default Hi from Kent

Hi all another newbie here, have a swb Maverick had it for last 8 years been a great runner but thirsty.
Have interests in shooting, fishing and all outdoor adventures, not done any real off roading (yet) mainly over fields to get to where I'm going.
Looking forward to learning more

Bfg at's are great, I have a set of 30", standard are 29". I had no problems with my 30" inch tyres rubbing or anything like that when I had standard suspension, I have a 2" lift now and will be getting bigger tyres, 31" plus
