If you just have a 2inch spring lift i'd suggest getting 235s. I have the same setup on my white sierra, I used to have 30s which was ok for most stuff but under full flex it scraped the front tyres a bit. Depends what kind of tracks and driving you like to do i guess.

[royce]

legal is 15mm above standard too, which limits you to 215/75

there are no shades of legal either, IE 235 arent more legal than 37's

but 235 is a good fit and pretty popular

my insurence goes out the window if i hav bigger tires above legal like thirdparty n that doesnt it

[royce]

I know plenty of people that havent had any trouble

they need to prove the tyres cause the accident, so if you ran into somebody they could say that was the fault

okay thanks i mit look in to that size tires
i think ferdral make a mud in that size

only have 2inch spring lift on my car and veryhappy with 235-75-r15 silverstones at117 special $150 per corner good on road not bad off no rubbing

in vic for a live axle vehicle its 50mm above the largest tyre that was available for that diff. note i said that diff and not that vehicle. 31's are the max legal tyre i can engineer. on ifs cars its usually 15mm above standard as thes generaly have a different wheel bearing arrangement.

lucky bastard that is the shit thing with livin in qld is the rules

so i queensland there is no way to make like 30s or 29s legal is there

[royce]

yes, remove your compliance plates, build it with components designed to handle those loads and get an engineer to sign off on it and register it as a ICV

is that hard to do n wat would i need for it

[royce]

you will be registering it as a seen 4x4 mk1

count on a a few thousand in engineers fees alone

crap that is a lot y so much dont they jst hav to look it over n with i icv could i hav excend shackles

[royce]

no an engineer has to do a full report on why the car is safe and meets ALL ADR's aplicible to it

[seen]

so the largest legal tire i can go is 215 75R 15
so if i fit 235 it is illegal but they hav to prove that it was the tires that cause the crash am i correct

yes and also depending on how large you go before the engineer will pass you he will make you upgrade components like your brakes and the necesities so they can deal with the out of wack gearing

In VIC it's +50mm for 4wd's, solid of IFS.
