Hey all,

Had a bit of a search around but cant seem to find a definete answer. Just been talking to my brother who has a 2002 v8 manual D2 with ACE etc.

He is looking at changing tyres and is looking at going from 255/65/16 (29.05" dia) to 255/70/16 (30.05" Dia) (KM2)

Will these fit with no rubbing or cutting required. It is totally standard. Legal issues are irrelevant as he isnt in Oz!

Thanks everyone.
Pete

They should fit no probs if he has a bull bar, not sure about the clearance with the original front bumper.

I have 235/85 R16's (approx 32") on mine and have no dramas.

Yes, no problem I ran 255/70R16 on my D2 for 3 years.
