33's on Standard GU

I got 285 X 75 plus two inch lift, it works well and give and extra inch lift. Highly recommended.

Hello fellow forumeers,

Been pricing up tyres for the patrol as I need to replace them before next rego inspection, Got some prices today on some Kumho KL78 a/ts theres $10 difference between the 265/75/16 and the 285/75/16

If I can I'd rather go the bigger size, I plan to go to a 2" lift down the track but would rather get the bigger tyres now if I can fit them, I'd expect scrubbing on full lock which doesn't bother me too much as long as height will be ok.


Would really appreciate some opinions on this.

Kind regards,
Eric.

How did you go on new Kumho, did you manage to have a crack at chopping up the treads.

Yep took them out last Sunday and was very happy with them! Some of the tracks were quite slippery up hills with ruts etc, I had no problems at all loved every minute of it!!!

So far extremely happy with them, My car raised 30mm with them on as opposed to the old 31's Its lucky I took those pictures too cos after we were out they were muddy and dirty


Cheers,
Eric.

2" Lift is in the plans for future mods when funds allow
