Hi everyone, I am currently restoring a MK LWB SD33T and looking at getting new tyres and rims for her.

I'm currently trying to debate weather to go 15 or 16 inch rims. I'll be running either 33/12.5 inch (R15) OR 285/75 OR 305/70 (R16) tyres.

Any suggestions or opinions would be welcome. :)

Hey Majestic, I do the same with my old MK LWB. (i have 235/85 r16 tires now)
What was the result?
285/75 R16 will fit on Stock MK? Or you need minus 2x rims? Or need a lift kit also?

Thank you!

If you go the 285/75/16 route you will get a commercial truck rated tyres as against the lighter construction 33R 15
