Most certainly would if I could, unfortunately QLD transport doesnt allow tyre size increase beyond 15mm to be engineered and thats the blanket rule, even if you change the diffs and brakes to something considerably larger - hence my comment earlier "QLD's irrationally inflexible rules", you could build a rig to be 50% safer than stock with a certificate to provide it but with 33"s+ it would be deemed illegal with no exception.

Just out of curiosity were you running 4.88's and 32" tyres? What was it like?

No I had the 4.88's ready to go in but hadn't yet fitted them so i'm just running the standard 4.10 ratios.

Cheers,
B.

Do you think the cops noticed you on 35s because they stuck out past the guards too much?

Not at all, remembering I had 12+months of no police attention due to luck or thanks for the tyre being completely covered by the stock looking but 2" wider DBOR flexy flares.

Cheers,
B.
