    I am up for new tyres on a standard 4.0 96 RR. Am running Duellers at the moment because they were the best buy in Derby in 2010 when we came of the Gibb. Have done 55 on them and getting low. Was thinking of going from the 235/70/16 to 245/70/16 in the BF Goodrich TA/Ko.

    Anyone gone down that route.

    They won't rub! Pretty much the same rolling diameter as standard.

    I was wondering whether 245/75 R16 would be a good compromise, could you get away without bodywork issues with them, opens up a lot of options for muddies if you are that way inclined.

    Thumbs up

    I took a punt and went 265/75/16s dueller A/T 5,000 ks new koni,s
    and no rubbing handle's and ride's grouse did set a few faults off but
    the EAS buddy fixed that I think the new shock's held it up so high at the front it was going out of range and then throwing the fault's they seem to have settled abit and it's all good.
    All though some time's I think the car is possessed.

    If you drive around on access do you get any rubbing on the rear (no pun intended)...

    I don't on 255/70's, only under full flex do the rears rub (and only lightly).

    I put it down to soft bump stops.

    265's I can't comment on, and the 245/75's will be a project for next weekend if I get the chance.
