Might call and talk with SATV about it... They could probably shed some light on that through past customer purchases.

I guess that depends what year your defender is... I've heard the newer models have the forward A arms.  Not sure if the Xmr's had the new A arms though. 

On my 2018 Xmr I have 31" tires and had zero rubbing even with the shocks set in the softest setting.

I would have to believe you could go to a 32" tire and probably just adjust the preload on the shocks if they do rub.

I know the 2019 xmr's have the 2" forward A-arms. So if yerz doesn't have them and doesn't rub.... I would think 33's would fit no problem...

Factory arms. Haven’t been able to figure out if xmr has factory forwards or not. I think I could clear 35s with a little scrub.
