    Ooo that's a good idea! How common is 255/85R16 over there? I wouldn't have a chance of finding a set second hand in NZ.

    Compared to, say, passenger car tyre sizes, 255/85/16s are uncommon, but amongst 4WDers not so uncommon that a used set couldn't be found. All it takes is a wanted ad...

    thanks

    Thanks to everyone for your input, I have located some second hand BF Goodrich 235 85R 16 at the right price so will give this a go. If no good I will go more extreme and change rims as well.....cheers

    Ok, so on a bit of a different tangent, has anyone fitted, or know if you can fit, 16x8 boost alloy rims to a 6x6 Perentie? Say with 285/75R16's ?

    Something similar to this?


    Just catching the perentie bug.

    Dont they fowl on each other or something in the rear if the tires are too big? I thought I read something along those lines in the 6x6 suspension thread.

    I may be wrong though...
