265/75/16's on Stock 110 suspension ?
Thinking about 265/75/16's on the 110, but have been told they will rub on full lock ? is this correct ?

Thumbs Up Really works well the black on grey.... Is your exhaust coming through the body on the side ?

I have 265's on ZU's with no spacers and they are offset by 11mm (I think). They are right on the money in relation to the arches. I think 285's on standard boost's would probably achieve the same so would not exceed the arches. Nick

Photo shows 285/75x16 Kumho KL71 on standard Boost alloy with Rakeway 30mm spacer. Turning circle is the same as with 236/85x16 on Boosts w/o spacers; tyre is *just* legal as far as lateral projection goes.

i have 285's on boosts as well no rubbing, although it does take an acre or two to turnaround. The turning circle is a bit of a joke.

I have 265 BFG AT's on boost alloys and they did rub until I adjusted the stops on the front - now no issue.

Would it work without the 30mm spacer or would the turning circle not be as good ?
