Post by wattsy »

Hi all, want some mud tyres for my Surf, just checking these will fit under it standard height until I do a 2 inch lift. Currently has 265/70/16 on factory alloys thinking of going to 265/75/16 on 16x8 steel spokes?
Thanks

Well i got some 16x8 rims and 265/75/16 Kumho kl71 tyres,however have clearance issues on front tyres. I havent driven anywhere as they would chew out the tyre if i turned. Anyone running the same on a KZN185 Surf. I am doing a 2inch lift shortly so hoping this will help

Running Adventuro's in 265-75-16 and all good with only a wee bit of thumping to bend back the front inner guard 10 mm or so.
A lift will be better but been on quite a few trips as-is.
