 :D  Would love to try it in my LPG V6  :D

£10 worth of unleaded a couple of months back and that should last till Xmas....the rest at 37p ltr :D

Rockin Robin:
First posting and it's a question ......

Does anyone know if 225/75/R16 General Grabbers would fit Freebie 16" alloys without causing problems (or should I be looking for something the standard size)  :?:

Doobreydog:
They should fit depending on age of vehicle and offset of wheels...but you will not have much clearance between tyre and suspension/wheel arch...Lokking at avatar if thats as dirty as it gets you should be ok....much more mud and you will start to have problems....Largest recommended for std FL is 215/75/16 or for height 205/80/r16.

All tyres can vary in profile depending on tread so if going for a really agressive tread then you will need to go down in size (I have 215/80/r15 bronco diamond backs and even with lift and spacers they just fit as tread is about 20mm and profile nearer 90-95 rather than stated 80

Hope that helps

Rockin Robin:
Hmm ... think I might stick with the standard size for the time being (bit cheaper too, as I won't have to replace the spare as well).
