AT Tyres for SWB CSW

(1/4) > >>

Ser3 J:
Hey there  :wink:

I want to replace the crossply tyres on my newly acquired SWB with some AT Tyres - can anyone advise on the correct/best size?  The rims are standard and also new so I don't really want to replace them as they suit the vehicle...

Anyone still use/need crossplies? (7.5x16 I think) 4 have done 500 miles and the 5th is brand new!!!

Thanks in advance

Rich_P:
If you're not doing very high mileages then I can suggest Colway All Terrains.  Same tread as BFG AT. :)

Ser3 J:
Rich,

Thanks for the advice  :)   I was just going to get BFG as 'the best' but I will only do about 3000 miles a year and what with the new tyre laws (5 years max) then these may be just the ticket.

Its the size i'm unsure of.  I dont want to cut my panels or do any lifting.

Ser3 J:
Its a 2.25 '81 CSW if that makes any difference - though im hankering after either a 200TDi or the HCR(?) 2.8 bored out version with ported head etc  :twisted:

Edited 4 speling

Rich_P:
7.50 or 235/85 are the most common sizes that are fitted. Other sizes would fit, but these are the most suitable for the vehicle.

Just as a note, the standard Series transmission has a hard enough time with the torque of the 200TDi.  A 2.8 will just blow everything apart within days.  :lol:
