Thread: 235/85 on spare carrier

Only if you mount it deflated ( say 10 psi), otherwise it's too large. I have 235/85's, and they are good off road with a 2 inch lift and some rear guard cutting. ( Exception is where you tow heavy stuff - you need the standard dia wheels or a defender transfer case)

On a D2 its simply a matter of inverting the wheel carrier,can this be done on a D1???

My last 1 fit no probs.
Cheers Dean.

I have 235.85 on wifey's D1, fit no problem at all, don't know where you get this tyre deflating business from.

B92 8NW you would have seen it at my place if you where there longer than 2 minutes

Yours is a 300tdi? Mine drives soooooooooo much better with this size tyre on

Haha cheers. I thought they'd have slowed it down up all those mountains, is yours automatic?

Yeah I was in a burning hurry. Plenty of mud down there, maybe I'll come back for a drive sometime.

yeah auto, bit sluggy off the mark but not that noticable

The waiting time on KM2s and Bighorns is in the order of several weeks as I found out today, if anyone is thinking of buying them (ie order early, not the week before a trip)
