Very Nice Bushy
I have a shorty with a 2" lift.
Hopely I have my new rims in december(dick cepek torque 7x8.5 ET06)
I was think to buy 265/70/17 but now I see your pictures mmh maybe I go for 285/70/17.
Do you think they will fit with the dick cepek rims?
In europe its not possible to buy 275/70/17 in mud tyre (only on road tyre)Comment

Thanks for the pics! 0 offset rims are easier to come by so that opens up more options!

yeah not sure if legal cus ive widend the wheel base but handles nicer on and off road, lot less body roll
geert - um not sure wat ET06 is but i do have a bit of clearance between the UCA so a wider rims should b okComment

That looks great! The tyre size looks just right for the car. The front tyres didn't touch the bullbar on full compression?Originally posted by Bushy13 View Post[FONT=Verdana][COLOR="#0000CD"]2008 GXL D4D Work in progress[/COLOR][/FONT]Comment

Hi Bushy. Do the mud hogs make any more noise on the road? And have you noticed a difference in fuel economy? Did you get a spare and does it fit on the rear door?

Na I fixed the bullbar dont normaly sit like that Joshy
Brad - Yeah got a spare thats all good a bit heavyer tho! Yeah like all muddies that got a noise but not major and nothin different to fuel! But it drives nicer when changin gears cus it has that bit more weight to the tyres I thinkComment

How did u get away with 0 offset, I got a 10mm offset so I could clear the UCA as mine rubbed with 0 offset? How much of a gap do u have?Comment
-
So are your rims -10mm offset or +10mm offset? -10mm would push it further away from the UCA. I like your rig too!Originally posted by J2ck2s51988 View Post
