Time for new tyres, would like to go up to the 285/75x16 Cooper AT or ST (still undecided) from the 265's currently on at the moment.
A few questions....
My 80 suffers chronic turbo lag under 2000rpm, so the taller tyre would obviously effect the gearing (by 7% according to previous posts), anyone running the same tyre on the same car, whats your opinion in actual drivability...slip the hell outta the clutch?!
Any one know if this size tyre would be legal in SA for the 80 series?
Does anyone in Sydney know where to get a good price? Matthews in 7 Hills quoted $288/tyre...
Thanks for any input...
