cherren meant to ask the Cooper Discoverer ST 17" x 10.5" are they the same measurement as the 245/65 R17 or are they the 245/70 R17 equivalent. I put the 245/70 R17's on my WH and had to get rid of them they were too loud it was like a jet engine. The tyre guy agreed so I went back to the 245/65R17 in Discoverer ATR. As a matter of interest I met a guy in Kalgoorlie while I was travelling around WA recently and he had the 245/70 R17 ST's. He was towing a 20' van and did a driveshaft and uni joint. He told me Jeep would not fix the problem as he had oversize tyres which over torqued the drive system...cost him $3,000. So I was glad I didn't stick with them!!!
But I would like to get a more aggressive tyre in standard size but they seem to be are non-existant at this stage.
