    They will mate lots of room in gu guards . I was just using that as an example. Yeah me and Steve have also discussed the width thing as my worn 285's are about the same width as his new 305's, they seem to get fatter with age lol. But yes the 305's will look nicer. Believe it or not I also priced 305's they were $315 landed in Brisbane.

    I got my 305/70r16's from don cornells about 9 months ago and i paid $300 each. cost about $15 each for fitting/balance. The 305's do look sh!t hot too

    Yeah that price I stated for both sizes was through Don Cornell's. The closest price I could get in Brisbane for supply only was $85 dearer.

    Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.
    Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both.
    For a wounded man shall say to his assailant,
    'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, You are forgiven.'
    Such is the rule of honour.

    I got a quote from this mob (http://apachewholesaletyres.com.au/s...te=common/home )
    for some 35s in a mud hog and they were in the low $300s so I'm sure they would have a good price on the 33s
    You could always run 2 sets? I have road and play tyres.

    Not sure if I could afford 2 sets or be bothered changing tyres for play as I'm lazy
