Yup, they'll fit, had exactly the same tyres on a set of Zu's myself. 285's are the maximum though

I think it's because 265's are often the recommended maximum. But it depends where you look and there is conflicting info out there. I never had a problem with the 285's on or off road. 2015 90 XS CSW TDCi - Beautiful

Don't know where you're getting your tyres from but here is a guide price for you.....
http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres-285-75-16/?m=82 I recently bought some BFGs from them and couldn't find them cheaper elsewhere. For a set of 5 they were an eyewatering £350 cheaper than a well known high street tyre supplier. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! Last edited by K9F on 16th Apr 2015 9:33am. Edited 1 time in total |

Cooper only approve 7.5-9.5" rims for the 285s:

Just to raise another aspect, if you have fitted tyres that are not recommended and are too big for the rims that they are fitted too, would this give the insurance company and excuse not to pay in the event of an accident.

/\ Potentially yes, despite what people say any insurance company will try to wiggle out of anything, unlikely though if the wheels are declared. Its a risk you have to decide if your prepared to take.
