Next mod is tyres, ordered 5 new tyres as the Cooper STT 32" (265/75/R16) are trashed, one got staked and destroyed over the weekend, another has a tread lug missing exposing the steel bands.
Getting Micky T MTZ 33" (285/75R16).
As the photo shows the 32's touch the chassis rail during flex, dont damage or mark the tyre, just dont feel/look right.
Had a look at spacers, not real keen on the idea so went for new rims.
Stock are +10 offset, will be getting -13 so the wider tyre (10mm each side) should have 13mm more clearance from the chassis.
Its been interesting doing up the Patrol Ute / Pod combo. Learnt heaps and have ideas for the next one allready if I did it again.
Number one it will be no bigger than the cab as I've allready hooked the front of the pod on an overhanging tree stump.
Hope you enjoy the read, Macca
