Thread: 18" wheels to 16" wheels

The alloys on the D2a country Version are 16 x 8 rather then the standard 16 x 7.

If you wanted to keep 18's you could go up one size with no problem.
General Grabber have released a new AT in 255 x 60 x 18.
The tyre is supposed to perform very well and is getting good reports in the D3/4 section.
They are also reasonable priced at under $300.00 fitted & balanced.

You can also get bigger rubber in 18's ie 275 x 65 x 18 or 275 x 70 x 18 but you will need to have a good lift to fit these.
These will have almost as much sidewall as a 265 x 75 x 16.

I'm in a D2a with 18"; running Nitto Terra Grappler AT in the 255/55R18 size. Done all the soft stuff at Stockton with zero drama's. Aired them down to 15 psi and kept speed below 40km/hr (most of the time anyway). Also used 255/55R18 Yokohama Advan ST's the same way and they went well too, a little less 'paddle effect' in the really soft stuff but a bit more speed cures all.

I was quite apprehensive about the 55 series tyres at first but will take them anywhere now. They're much quicker to air up and down too!

cheers
