pugwash Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 that's a shame, puts most Landcruiser owners out of contention as many will be shod in 35" tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redben101 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Yes please for both dates, unless you consider that being too greedy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 forms will be on my website soon, then it will be first come first served for forms and payment in. You can do both days if you wish - no problem there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 that's a shame, puts most Landcruiser owners out of contention as many will be shod in 35" tyres Yeah. Lots of Landrovers too, and busses, what about the busses? They all have big tyres too. I assume that a standard LC has smaller then 35" tyres?

Paul Humphreys Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I assume that a standard LC has smaller then 35" tyres? Chris Yes 275/70/16s. But most people that use them "off tarmac" change them to bigger ones. I run 35/12.5/16 Creepy Crawlers Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 i understand the tyre issue and despite everything i want to maximise participation in the days and minimise as best as possible impact on the ground which i feel smaller tyres achieves - ie smaller ruts etc. i also think there are more people with std size tyres out there that off road (ie upto 33") than there are with >33" which is really what the days are aimed at. Several of the regulars run MTs with 265/75s or 235/85s and i want them to continue to be able to get around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
