Got some new shoes today.
Maxxis Bighorn in 245/75/16
Did some flex shots to see how well it stuffs and if I get any rubbing.

Just a bit of rubbing up front on FULL LOCK. at the moment I CBF looking at where it rubs. Already done the pinch weld so I'm thinking it might be on the sway bar. |

Josh Heya Josh, Yeah 235/85/16 would be about another inch bigger in diameter. Too big for the lift I have and I didn't want to sacrifice articulation for the one inch taller. Guys who do trails with deep ruts might find 235/85/16's are better suited for them though. Road noise is marginal. You really have to try and listen to it. I do have a diesel though so the truck noise partly covers it
When you coast to a stop you can hear the whine but that's with the radio off. These tyres have sipes as well. I paid AUD$237ea. You guys will get it cheaper since you don't need to pay for freight OS. |
