OK so i bought the 265/75/16 BFG Mud Terrains. I should've bought the All-Terrains of course but i *wanted* the M/T's so thats different ;)
Put 700kms on them this w/e, all on the tarmac. Definite hum over 70kph but not too bad at freeway speeds... the Mrs didnt ask any questions :)
Cant say i feel any difference in terms of comfort versus the GG's
Looking forward to going off road!
Cheers

I'll answer that for him - yes the side lugs do (will).Quote:

Mine dont actually
They rubbed on the control arms so i just had to wind the steering stops out a little
NB according to Loubrey, 265/75 was a factory tyre size on African Defenders
Interesting - every set I've seen on Boost rims has rubbed the paint off the coil mounts under articulation - have you used yours off road yet?Quote:

It'll be the coil towers at the rear and the radius arms at the front - you need some articulation to cam the wheels over at the rear to pick up this issue.Quote:
