wheel sizes..
Ja1983:
yeah, theres three sizes in review at the mo:
235/85/16 - possibly a bit thin, may fold a lot under hard cornering (like that will happen!)
265/75/16 - mix of both
33/12.5/16 plenty of girth, as you say... could effect braking/stability.
ah, much confusion! :lol:
PUX:
265/75/16 will be fine trust me they are quite wide and tall they wont fold unless u buy a crap make or have um at the wrong pressure :wink:
Smeg:
I have heard that 265/75/16 maybe too big, comments on the hiluxsurf forum about them fouling the mudflaps and catching the bumper end stops.
I've got 31x10.5 R15 on mine and it's fine (and looks nice too :D )
Another source of Colways is http://www.tyresdirectuk.co.uk/
Can't remember if mine came from sowden or tyres direct, but one of them offers free shipping on a purchase of 5 tyres, means you get the 5th one at about half price (which is lucky for me as crap tracking has knackered one of them!).
Smeg.
Ja1983:
seem to have two threads on this subject! lol

..cant see mudflap fouling been a problem, i lost one at whitworth, and cant see th other stopping on much longer anyway! plus H/D springs mean its fairly clear.
its on 31 x 10.5`s at the mo. looks ok but would take bigger!
what rim width would be advised for the 265/75`s? :D
will a scrapyard special be ok (standard p/u rims.. or maybe surf/4runner steels?)
Jim-Willy:
i have seen 265 on rostyle which is 6.5 but they looked pinched, i would say 8 ideally, maybe get away with 7.
