So I might me ablt to get some 275/70r16 tyres for free, still in good nick. Will they fit a KJ with a 2" lift? Or will i have to bash flat pinch welds?
Thanks ConorD, I knew that was somewhere but couldn't remember. Will leave them be and put on some 245/70r16s down the track. Not keen on major guard modifications.
I just fitted 265/70-16 on mine, I have a 2" lift and it still scrapes on hard lock on the inner plastic guards...heat gun will fix that though...Oh, I had already fixed the pinch weld at the rear of wheel (don't stress anyone, I am a panel beater so it will fail from a professionals mod!)
A reminder that spacers are illegal for road use in most parts of Australia. I run 255/70 R16s Cooper STTs on my lifted CRD (3" Stu lift, engineered, done back when they were legal). Can't do more than 2" these days under NCOP regs.
I run the tyres on 16x8 MOAB clone rims imported from Quadratec. They have increased offset so there is no rubbing on the sway bar or anything else (pinch weld done a long time ago).
