Coil Sprung - Wheel/Tires
I’ve got a 2009 LR3 coil +2 OME HD and just found a set of 20” stormer wheels cheap, Ive read that 32 overall diameter is largest wheel/tire combo that I can go without rubbing, but I’d like some additional input if anyone has experience with it. Tires I’m looking at are 275/55R20 with a total circumference of 31.9”.2004 D2
2013 RRS
2009 LR3

TrojanRover - OP - There was a 2" taller HD coil kit available here in Australia from Kings Springs for the coiler model LR3 (D3 in Australia) but I can't recall any mention of that size 20" wheel/tyre (tire) combination being used with it.
The link supplied by CongoBoy may help but is specifically referring to air suspension models (as does the link provided by MorganD379).
There were a number of coilers sold in 2005-2006 in Australia and a search on aurlo.com.au may assist you with the answers you seek. I say this in view of the fact that 20" wheels have become more readily available since the release of the D3 in 2004.

Thanks all! This is all extremely helpful information as I try to figure this out. My LR3 came factory Coil, so it’s been interesting to say the least trying to figure out capabilities.
