has anyone got the above on there truck, down south somewhere that i could come and have a look at in the flesh so to speak. just want to see what they look like before i get rid of my sport, as i may get tyres changed over as the 2 front ones are new on my sport and back still have good tread.
the photos have been great what have ben supplied, just would like to see it up close.
cheers.

Some B`s were born with 15" & some 16" diameter,but width is the issue not diameter. Your rims look like 16" if so you should be on 245/70. Stick with standard sizes,BFGoodrich AT are an excellent choice for road/laning use,a bit expensive but wear rate is low.

ok, now thats what i call clever, just been out an looked, and how you knew that from a photo, that i had 16s, i will never know.
so what range of tyres are available to me, size wise, and Ats. that will fit without any mods.
i have took into account what you have said.
cheers. sean

Evening John,cheers for that but what is not immediatly obvious is that Sean has a B series 2.2 LWB.
A series have far more wheel arch clearance.

I know it's a sport and doesn't necessarily help a lot but my truck runs on 255/75/15's which are CAMAC TERRA's. There are plenty of piccies of my truck on the forum to see what it's like with those tyres. Also bear in mind that my truck has a 2 inch lift as well. Mind you, the tyres were on before the lift and I've never had them scrape or scrub out on anything either!!  Si
