What wheel would you swap to so you can run 17’s?

It's more a case of what vehicle, rather than the wheel.

Steve,
I've heard of problems with US dealers refusing to sell tyres to the UK. I don't know if that's because of the approval system, or because their distributor agreement forbids them to sell outside their area, or even possibly that they just don't want the business (unlikely). Official import of type approved tyres seems to be the only hope. One good point, UK prices can sometimes be less than in the US. |

Those look great WSD. I’m thinking bigger for my next change of tyre, 235 does everything I ask of it- so it’d mostly be a vanity project for me

Just ordered my set of km3’s.
If anybody else is looking. Paddocks are a good price, with free postage. But currently have 10% off to this forum currently so that makes them far far cheaper than the others. |

They still look to have really good chunky tread like the KM2. Just different block pattern and design No Guts, No Glory.

Yep. Look good especially as a full set of five. Can’t fault Paddock’s they were fantastic.

That’s interesting news.
I did email them a couple of weeks ago about that size and I said they are available in the United States. They said they weren’t available at the moment to me here. I wonder if they found a Stateside supplier? The time scale would match.. I said that there would indeed be interest in the 255/85 size.  No Guts, No Glory.
