    Aggressive AT's for D2 18 inch rims

    Earlier this year the D2 got an OME 40mm lift, damper and shock upgrade and it getting a new rear bar shortly. Next on the list is a set of decent At's, I like the design/reviews on Coopers STMaxx's, GY Duratrac and DC FC-II's however they're all ~32's. Its my understanding that the maximum you can increase your tyre size by is 2 inches in NSW. Does anyone know of a way too, or better yet LEGALY runs 32's on a Disco2, or do I have to stick with much milder HT's.

    PS, Yes i know this is another 'tyres' thread but I've been searching for different makes/sizes of tyres, and trying to read the ADR's vs NSW regs is giving me a headache.

    General Grabber AT2's

    How well do the AT2's take nicks etc they're not LT tyres, but they're XL load rated?

    I just bought Bridgestone Dueler AT 696's from tirerack cheaper than any other 255/55 R18 available in Perth. Currently in Coral Bay and the tyres are a dream. Nice and aggressive and even held up to mud okay.

    Hi Brougham, where in Perth did you get them ? I'm looking for rubber soon and was interested in what people had to say about 18"s as I want to keep mine at 18"s.

    I did the same , got bridgestone dualer 696 255/70/18 from tirerack.com and they have been great . Did a trip from perth to darwin , right through Arnhemland and back last year . Rough as guts roads when there were any out in Arnhemland and didn't have ant tyre issues. I took 3 spares just incase because of the odd size and still have 3 brand new here in the shed .

    I paid that locally and my tyre fitter made some money for his family
