Not realy, the standard frontera rims dont have a very good negative offset. Any articulation and i think these tyres would rip out the inner arches :shock:
Look so much better than the worn out grizzleys though dont they :wink:

mark, just make sure you let them down to 18psi offroad :wink:
here is a tip for you though
to soften the side walls up as there megger stiff
when you fit them, drive 5 miles or so on them with only about 10psi in, they soften up a treat and there way better offroad then when let down :wink: :wink:
the advantage of the JT's aswel is....you can do a 5mm re-cut on them when there low :wink:
