Grand Cherokee tyres
« on: June 29, 2009, 20:55:45 »
Evenin'all,  been a bit quiet on here lately ,so heres a query on tyre sizes for a '97 (zj ?).
I need some new tyres ,   the ones that were on there when I bought it have lasted quite well, but theyre over £100 a corner to replace !   225/70 r16 . So I've been looking at 225/75 r16's as they seem to be more widely available and a variety of makes ,and cheaper prices.   
The 225/70's used to catch the wheelarch liner on the front ,'till I adjusted the stops, so will I need to do this again with 225/75's ? as it already has the turning circle of a battleship !
'97  4.0l Jeep Grand Cherokee on L.P.G.   back to family transport :(  
'82 RRC Ambulance camper project .   Sold :(
'95 300tdi disco auto. :)

Maxxis tyres offer excellent value, lots of us are using them now I bought 33" (285/75 R16) Mudders for £85, of course smaller sizes/more popular sizes are cheaper. They perform very well, both off and on road.

Hope this helps, Maf

Laning patches will only keep the desire at bay for a few days, get in the mud and enjoy the banter.
