I seem to have two tyre placards on my door jam on my 80 Series LC
One identified as 60600 WQ states
Tyres - 7.50R16-6PRLT
Rims - 16 x 5.5
Other identified as 60610 WS
Tyres - 275/70R16 114H
Rims - 16 x 8 JJ
The tyres actually on the vehicle are BFG ATs LT 265/75 R16 120/116 S
Can anybody help me find what I am supposed to have to be compliant.

The first placard applies to standard split rims and 7.50 x 16 tyres, the second applies to the rims that are on it at the moment , 265/75 would be close enough to 275/70 and 116 S is a higher load and speed rating than the placard so that will be ok too.
The reason you have two tyre placards is so that you can fit either type of rim and tyres.

Thanks Peter
I was told that the BFG were compliant but when I checked the placard I got cold feet.

Assuming they are not on split rims then you have compliant tyres fitted to your L/C ...
