Hi Guys,
I run a 120 Prado GXL Petrol Auto. It has ARB suspension with their recommended lift (30mm front and 50mm rear approx). I currently run on 265x70x17 BFG ATs. My question is, as I recently checked the BFG website, what is the max size tyre I could use eg 275x70x17 or 285x70x17

Cheers

I know some people that run 34" Swampers on the 120 Prado, but you will
need higher lift (around 70mm at rear) to fit them.

I made those 34" tyres fit too ;-)

Have also done 285/75/16 and 285/70/17 and tried a set of 35 x 10.5 silverstone Xtremes on a 120 this week.

We also did the 70mm lift on the swampered 120, and can do up to 100mm lift.

How do you go with wider tyres on the front, last time I stuck my head under one there was a suspension part about 1cm off the tyre, didn't look like there was much room for wider tyres unless you changed the rim offset
