So are your tyres 265/75/16?? If so can you throw up a photo of your pinch weld, would like to see how much has had to come off to avoid the tyre hitting it.

Ill get a trim photo up BJ, covered in mud at the moment. Yeah 265/75R16s.

We just got back last from 1200km trip up coral coast. I didn't get it into anything nasty, just some sand on beach out of a station we camped on.

Rub is good flashy. At compression and full lock the thin plastic wall behind the bull bar hits but I'll soon trim it away. It causes no wear or damage.

The rims were a bloody nightmare to get in spec. I ended up going zero off set and its come up pretty well. The GG tyres need a really low pressure to see any sag in the tyre wall. I went to 15 psi in these pics to get it into the softer stuff, the sidewalls are really pretty rigid.

I have the same offset wheels but with 245s, the sidewall of the tires scrub on the fender in the rear when flexed. Have you noticed any rubbing in the rear?

The rim off set looks good, do the treads stick out much beyond the guards? Would love a pic as I'm toying with the idea of upgrading from steelies to a similar but different brand rim to yours.

That beach photo is so good, I often think AJOR should fundraise by producing calendars from member's photos, might even inspire more to submit their photos. I'd have an annual subscription for the KK calendar.

A bit but its more the bulge on the GG SLR tyres while the tread itself sits almost flush. So far the cops haven't taken issue with it and I was stopped last week on our northern drive for a random booze check.
