Quick tyre question.

[tuttle]

I'm also concerned that if the width is too wide on the rears, which are doubles, then rubbing may be an issue.

 

yes, you can fit them, as you say there maybe rubbing, i have done loads of tricks like this.

 

suck it and see:thumbup:

My 215s are duals and don't rub (there is still a big gap between them). They are on Iveco rims though, not sure about Transits.

I'll try and pop in to a mates tyre place tomorrow and see what the crack is.

 

Blackcircles have Kumho Road Venture AT's 205/80 R16's for £69 each, so I'm keen to do it if possible.

I just ordered some right beasts now just got to hope they fit alright!

If you want mega grip get Insa Turbo special traks - they are awesome off road. They howl a lot on road though - they sound like a quad! I've got them on the back of a Toyota Dyna and it is amazing where it will get too. The only problem is that when you do get stuck, if you wheelspin too much they dig massive holes very quickly!

These are what ive ordered 4 of these its the same width 205 so will go on my rims going to be alot higher and speedo will be totally out just going to be trial and error i think see how i get on!

Man they are knobbly!

 

I'm just after a bit extra in wet grass, not exploring the Amazonian rain forest!

 

Great price though, let me know how they fit.

Our local tyre fitter who comes out has Kuhmo KL71's [Road Venture MT] on the dual rears of a LWB tranny dropside. The size you quote is going to stick less than another inch inbetween your existing rims....

Take the spare off and stand it up against a front wheel and you'll be able to get a better idea of how much space you'll have without having to crawl around under the back.....

I wouldn't worry about it, stick 'em on.....

James, you should be able to check your speedo against a GPS to give you an idea of the margin of difference.
