Can I fit 285’s?

#1 by Beardychops ( Guest ) , Tue Aug 03, 2021 5:59 pm

Hi all 👋🏼
So I’ve gone up 65mm body and OME suspension which says 40mm
Question is will I fit 285/75’s no doubt with a bit of trimming?!
A few tweaks here and there I can do but if it’s a lot of work I may stick with 265/75’s?
Appreciate anyone’s comments who’s been there and done it👍🏻
Cheers!

Excellent news 😁👍🏻
Nothing extreme (work truck), thinking muds, but to be honest I’ve been pretty impressed with the cooper stmaxx that I’ve been running for the last 6 years! Aggressive(ish) all terrain I got at a great price back then.Good enough tread left but getting dry and a bit cracked.

I was considering the STT but was out of a little by the low speed rating
K - 68mph 😳 Not sure what that’s about? Although I don’t much go over that anyway, can’t afford to burn that much diesel 😂
