I have 265 75 16 insa dakars on my series, I do have super wide offset wheels. The tyres make a lot of road noise that's my only comment really

Reckon it all comes down to what do you want / use the landy for most? am sure there will have to be a compromise

I've just fitted 265/85/16 and I'm getting a little rubbing on full lock on the rear front spring mount... might have to invest / make some spacers.

They are 265 75 16, they are fitted to modulars with a 35mm offset, they catch the wheel spats on articulation on the back and I have also noticed that they hit the rear tub when articulating a lot.

Series 88s look the dogs on 750s (235s in new money) anything else is just sheer pose value and problems.

Yeah, fat tyres make the steering heavier.

Nowt wrong with the eyebrows, i think they look well. Then again at least i have one which is supposed to have them rather than butchering the bodywork :behindsofa:

Extra tractions are pretty good in mud and relatively quiet on the road. Had a few issues on slippery side-slopes but that"s always asking a lot.

Need a lot of pressure in if you've got a load up cause there's loads of flex in the side walls else it's like driving on flats

And yer just jealous cause I'm in touch with my inner fluffy vegatable
