| Michelans gave in Maybe BFG AT Dont know what size to choose |
|
I have a set of 265/65/17 Mich LTX that are peeling and are going to be replaced they have recommended BFG at I see you cant put 265/65/17 on because the BF site specs say that they need a 7.5j rim and the disco has a 7j rim.
As for diameter the size jump is massive from the original 235/17 something like 40-42 mm So i just dont know what size I dont want 235 any suggestions will be welcom
Heres ther BFG link http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/specs/all-terrain-t-a-ko/44.html

Welcome David,
I have the 265/70R17 on mine. You might like to consider those.
One factor to consider, however, is that at some stage (I think 2008, but maybe 2007) LR modified the rear wheel arch, meaning a greater protrusion on the leading edge. This made tyre rubbing more problemmatic. Hopefully someone on here will clarify this point.
Best Wishes,
Peter The Bearded Dragon
