    I found a guy on ebay AU selling four 20 inch wheels for $1,700. I think I’ll get them, so I can then fit proper AT tyres on the car

    Legalities wise, people always seem to talk about going bigger, not smaller. I tried looking on the VICROADS website and gave up.

    If its not illegal its fine. I dont think for a 4x4 its ever wise to reduce tyre circumference for obvious reasons.

    Back from Adelaide. I spoke to several tyre reps and the Land Rover rep. All said 255/55R19 is illegal. You can go 50 mm bigger on a 4WD, but only 15 mm smaller.

    I will go with Duratracs in 255/55R20 - original size so they can't blame me!

    Were they the first Terrra Grapplers or the newer G2?

    I hear good things about Toyo Open Country AT2. I’ve never tried them though
