    Do either of these 2 fit a D4 legally and with no rubbing? If so all good load wise.

    Cheers
    Anything 32” rubs a little. Especially when the suspension drops!

    Yep mate. It will knock it a little. Still a little unsure whether I should go for a bit more. The stock tyre is a near 31 inch 265/60/18. Fuel economy is impressive as is grunt. Not sure if losing a litre or so per 100k (HT to AT is part of that) is worth it. I could just opt for the same size in AT and take a much smaller hit to economy.

    Cheers

    Why not 265/65/18.

    No added drag from increased width. Still goes 32”.
    114T Rating exceeds your GVM and won’t make it ride like a cart.

    Thanks mate. Yes 265 is a big tyre and sometimes stock width is right to start with. So yep going up one profile would give it a little more height and sidewall without blowing out the gearing.

    Cheers

    I only paid a few $ more/tyre for 265/60-18's about six months ago.

    They often go on special or 'promotion' so for those that are interested keep tabs on the Falken Australia website

    Take something like this into your tyre dealer and start haggling!

    We are just about to get some 275/55R20s in the Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws and I noticed this thread.
    Thanks Tombie for making me check too. I was quoted $380 each tyre (with the 4 tyres for the price of 3 deal in April from Falken) making the full set of 4 being $1140 which I thought was pretty good. Then I checked fleabay and one place is selling the exact same tyre for $285 + $20 postage . Might have to do some haggling and see what happens.
    Glad to see the Falkens perform well though .
    Cheers
