WOW? I just asked for the factory replacement size! As the Diameter is 776mm. I think the 275's are 846mm? I didnt want to blow out the speedo too much. I had so many hassles with the Grande that I dont want to do the same with the Kakadu?

]mickmac_42 is rite the 275 65 18 is just bigger then a 32' and the speedo can be recalibrated but with these tyres shouldn't need to be as they run 3 to 4% over. other members that have already fitted them state this is correct also.

Are you talking about the same tyre in different sizes? I think the 275 looks better, will offer more scope for bagging out when pressure is lowered but it will be less fuel efficient than the 265.
