Iv done a search but I can only seem to find info on off-roading. I just want to know what size modulars i need, and what size bf goodrich at's i need without having to faf around with spacers or lift kits ect please if anyone can help?

Need for what?? I realise yu is a Gaylanderer but even yu must realise that a request for info requires some data to base that info on..

Just really daily driving with the odd muddy field and a bit of snow if we get some, nothing too major

Dr_evil · Oct 23, 2013

why do you need modulars for that then

Bulldog164 · Oct 23, 2013

Because I have 17" wheels on it and there's more choice of tyre and cheaper prices for 16". Plus I just like the look of modulars with at's on

Barry6690 · Oct 23, 2013

Either 205/80/16 or 215/80/16 are the most popular choices for 60/40 usage.

Would that require any fettling?

Barry6690 · Oct 23, 2013

Depends on what rims you get/have, If you get them fitted as a set shouldn't be a problem

Bulldog164 · Oct 23, 2013

Looking to get some modulars. I'm guessing 16 x 7?

Sounds good

Bulldog164 · Oct 23, 2013

So 215/80/16 on 16 x 7 modulars would be right and wouldn't require anything else doing?

My first FL was T165 FAF.

Going back to sleep now...

I've just spoke to craddocks and they said there is no 17" AT tyre, and I can't have 16" wheels as they won't fit over the brakes? So would I need wheel spacers in order to fit 16" modulars?

bukko · Oct 24, 2013

16" modulars should fit ok, so I'm told.
As far as I'm aware it's just the 15" alloys you have to watch for, and even then you can get spacers if you really want them.

bukko · Oct 24, 2013

Wait a sec - 215/80/16? I didn't know those would fit, others might (probably do) know better

My 2001 V6 can take 215/65/16 or 195/80/15 (on steels) with no problems.

SES88 · Oct 24, 2013

Steel wheels are a different shape inside to alloys and therefore have more clearance over bigger calipers

the ET8 offset modulars that you find on the interweb will be ok with 205/215 tyres, but you'll lose a lot of arch clearance without a lift as you're increasing the tyre diameter quite a bit.

bunnymofo · Oct 24, 2013

15x10 modulars with some 37x12.5x15

JC600 · Oct 24, 2013

215/80/16 I'm sure will rub, 205/80/16 rub slightly on full lock with no lift or spacers using OEM alloys.

Bulldog164 · Oct 24, 2013

This is all well confusing

JC600 · Oct 24, 2013

215/80/16 tyres are 29.5" and 2.2% bigger than 205/80/16 tyres.....I wouldn't fit that size. As modulars are 7" wide I would go for a 215/70/16 tyre, as your only doing gentle dirt tracks etc
