Autobox and big tyres

(1/1)

sardonicus:
Was wondering if a diesel autobox can handle bigger tyres ...   Does anyone run 265/75/16's or 31 15's on their auto discos and how does it pull ?    still not got used to the high revs on the box with normal tyres when pulling away.
Thanks.

karlo:
I run 265/75/16's It's not super quick off the mark but does ok, it ain't gonna have sports car performance anyway.

J.D.:
Friend of mine has a 300TDI auto with 35/12.5R15 Muds on it, it pulls fine, just a little slower thats all.

auf_wiedersehen_pet:
My disco runs 265/70/17 BFG ATs without and noticable difference.

eugene:
digger on here runs the very large tyers on his auto disco and that pulls like a train so id say yes if you want to now what size hes running pm him i think they are 33.10.5.15
