Thread: Cooper and Mickey Thompson Tyres for 18 D4 rims?

Also to the OP if you tow, consider what larger rubber is doing to your gear ratios and torque band.

For normal use it won't be too noticeable but with a load on the back the bigger tyres will have the box hunting and the engine working on the outside of its torque band..

Much more interested in this size,or the 275.

Have been running the Cooper AT3 on the GOE rims on my D4 for several years. On my second set since late last year. I run two spares and rotate and rebalance around every 25,000kms. I got over 100,000kms out of the last set adhering to the above program. No issues with rubbing or wear. Have a 2.6t van I haul up north from time to time with no issues.

I am about to swap out the D4 (after a solid 220,000kms) for an RRS and seriously looking at if the GOE rims will fit. If so, will be keeping them and putting the OEM rims back on the D4 when I trade.

If the rims dont fit Cameron,there is a good home here.
I have At3s on my work ute at the moment,they were on there when we bought it,about worn out,unknown kms

There's only one LT A/T out there - it's 114 rated.

Umm,there is also,

BFG KO2,A/T 265/65/18 LT 122 rated,and
BFG KO2 A/T 265/60/18 LT 119 rated.

Both sizes available locally

Yep, saving for the BFG next year , will finish the vehicle off perfectly

Wouldn't fit BFG if you have them to me for free.

Every time I had BFG on a vehicle I've had nothing but problems.... Either chunking, cracking at base of tread, delaminating sidewall...

Ask LR JR about his recent blow out on a not so old BFG...

But good to see other makers taking on the size.
