Best tyres for Wolf rims on 90 bound for Morocco?
DogVanMan:
Even on ebay they seem to fetch decent money, the kit.
I been keeping an eye out for a bonnet as they seem to be cheaper than buying a kit, ironically.
Any suggestions as to where to look for an ex-mil bonnet?

im running 265/75/16 on my wolf rims no probs :wink: and there insa special tracks 8) you could always go for a set of g60 tyres that would normally be found on a wolf rim :wink:
AbyssDJ:
nothing wrong with 265/75/16's on wolf rims - bfg's recommended rim size for a 255 tyre is 5.5-6.5" if i recall correctly... a difference of 10mm is hardly going to cause the tyre to come off the rim - if it was, dont you think bfg would be cutting it ever so slightly fine?
wont be no probs ;) but if you already have 235/85 bfg at's for spaces, then id get another 4 the same
Wolfie:
BF Goodrich state a MINIMUM rim width of 7 Inches for the 265/75 AT.
You might be able to fit one onto a narrower rim, and it might be ok. However your insurance will be invalidated as there is evidence that this is not a correct combination of wheels and tyres.
Stick with a correct combination and you're covered.
Also, is it worth trying to get a cheap tyre that might not stand up to the rigours of driving in Morocco? A few extra pounds for well proven tyres will save a lot of hassle trying to find replacement tyres when you are there.

cheaper than bfg, but every bit as good
