    Thought as much. Do you have a diff drop in the front? Very high.

    Bottom rim lip to guard is the standard that seems to be in favour. Ta.



    Stolen from the 120 measurements thread.

    Could you do the rear as well? Did you install them yourself or paysome one?

    Airbag mans are in and pumped up to manufacturers maximum rated operating range.

    Running 285s and there looking small now ! Lol

    I've raised the front a little more, its sitting level... I do want some rake though. Either have to go 15mm higher on rear or 15mm lower on front... I'll have a play with rear first but might make the ride to firm...

    I've installed a diff drop kit to... was just the cheapy but now looking at buying the rear diff arm to do properly...

    Just need unichip to get the turbo injector kit together.... although with the bigger tyres and all the added weight it still smashes stock prados... drinking 13.5l combined driving..

    Photos below are on normal height... raise height gives 20mm more in rear and looks shhmick... wish it would just run on high all time... anyone know how to beat the Speedo sensor for the 55km hr safety ??

    KM2's look great. I had them on my old Nissan Patrol and they were awesome. Started to get a bit noisier after 40-50,000km though. But they wear really well. I reckon they would of had another 40,000km left in them when I sold the car. I put 60,000ish km on them.
    Hey yeh I like em. I used km2s when we did our lap of Australia in 2014. The Cooper STT's I found to be the quietest muddy. I normally have the music up down the highway or if I'm off road the noise doesn't matter.

    On the corrugations in the outback they were up there with the toughest side wall on the market. Not one puncture and we did 1000's of km's of corros.

    Re: Funds - baby on the way so it might come to a halt for a few months lol plus I've called Uni chip the other day and they still don't have a turbo, exhaust intercooler etc for the 2.8 yet !

    Just some photos of new wheels n tyres.

    Loving the new look.

    So close to body mount but seems ok. Wheel alignment tomorrow.

    Had to trim the little corner off the bottom fender. 2 second job. No rubbing but only buy a couple mil. Might do BMC.
