Hi Yoda,
What size tyres are they - 275 65 18s ? What effect did they have on your speedo with the different o/a diameter
compared with the origonal Kumo's?

Also Yoda, where did you get your wheels painted? It's a good look.

Hi Thommo
Tyres are BFG a/t's 265/65/18, they have made the speedo bang on at 100km according to 2 of my hand held GPS's
The 265/65/18 fits in the spare wheel well, I don't think a 275 would, also I don't think you would fit a 275 with out changing wheel back space or it would rub( even with the lift)

Clarkey
I painted the wheels with a product called Plastidip (spray on rubber coating)
It is really only temporary as I did no sanding before painting, just wanted to see how the GC looked with black wheels as I hate the chrome with our bright silver, we will buy black rims when I decide what shape fits the GC best( and when we can afford it&#128561

Thanks Yoda. It does look good with the black rims. I wonder what that 3M carbon fibre film would look like.

Thanks again.

Clarkey.
