Tyre Size Question


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

First off apologies i know this has been done to death but i need a answer today if poss.

I have a 1995 110 (with 2 inch lift) Disc brakes all round, currently on 265x75x16 KL71s which are getting past their best but okay for using on play days etc

I have a set of Disco 1 Alloys in good condition anyway am considering fitting these with A/T tyres, what size would you reccomend and why?

Currently thinking either 255x85x16 or 285x75x16, jsut wondered what your experience is of these tyre sizes good and bad.

Regards

Keith

Mathematically speaking the 255's will be 0.3 inches taller (33.1 total) and the 285's are 30mm wider. Neither will be a problem with a 2" lift. You may have to adjust the steering stop for the wide tires to keep them from rubbing, slightly reducing your turn radius. I like skinny tires, but that's just me, if you expect deep sloppy mud go for the fatties.
