I'm running 265/65's on standard rims. Slight rub on full lock but it's pretty rare.

It's just a OME HD kit but I don't have any barwork so got about 75mm rear and 100mm front. That was over my completely shagged out stock suspension anyway.

The photo was also taken climbing the Wombat Main Range Track out of the Woonangatta Valley heading for Talbotville. It's about a 45 degree slope, 4500rpm in low 1st with a tonne of Tvan on the back!

I'm not surprised the front was up a bit! Loved it!

I don't know if it's harsh but it's definitely firm. It corners nice and flat and the rides pretty good imho. I run 35psi front and rear on road. Not 40+ like some so that helps.

It would be nice to be able to get some Nitrocharger Sports for the Grand from OME rather than plain Nitrochargers but no choice unfortunately.

It is better with a load on pounding over corrogations but that's more about being in the outback somewhere [emoji3]
