Off road wheels.
My mechanic is adding another 3 of these to his Suzuki Jimny off roader.
Very bling bling. ![Cool](https://www.rib.net/forum/images/smilies/coolsmiley.gif) He also reckons that the Suzuki's always beat LR's hands down while off roading

Can't deny that the Suzis have a good reputation off road, light weight, narrow wheels, narrow track. That's probably why they roll over

I sold a V8 Disco to a local lad. The Disco's engine had been taken out and was in bits in the boot, so the car was somewhat 'nose-up'. The buyer turned up in his Jimny and towed the Disco away on 8' of rope, with his brother on brakes and steering (without power assistance to either) in the Disco!
I did point out that if anything went wrong the Disco would go over/through the Suzuki.

Looks as though it has been fitted with larger axles in the pics, possibly Land Cruiser?
