    Now here's me having convinced the Cook we should flog the Deafener and get a D4 and this tyre/size/choice rears it's ugly head.
    We love to go remote but I'm damned if I'll be doing that on 19s and I don't really want to be shovelling heaps of money GOEs way as soon as I get one.
    I reckon a rethink is on the cards and maybe the darkside will get a revisit.

    PS. We had a good run with a Prado for over 4 years and the Cook has reminded me of that.....

    Well I just ordered my GOE rims today, with air freight they got up there in price.
    The cost will keep going as I now need a rear wheel carrier, and seen as it's empty under where the spare goes I suppose a long range tank will be in order

    Now to decide wether to go 265/65/18 or 275/65/18

    You could go 265/60R18, available in various brands including BFG KO2 and still fit a spare underneath.

    Thanks for the recommendations on going back to tyre shop, I don't really expect to get anywhere with that

    Exactly what I'm currently running and very happy with so far including some nasty rocky tracks.

    There's even a couple of MTs in 265/60/R18 that get some good feedback if you're that way inclined.
    Eg the Atturo Trail Blade.

    Thanks Graeme, but I'm a little paranoid now and want a larger sidewall I want to stick with a 31.5" or 32" tyre.
    Gordon commented that the 32" tyre has a noticeable loss in power so maybe the 265/65/18 (31.5) might be the go.

    I like the look of the new KO2 but not sure how proven they are yet so I'm sticking with what I know works, the Cooper STMaxx.

    Or you could get a newer Defender.
