Bigger tyres

We also have an 05 Patrol and pgraded to Cooper ATR 265/70/R17 - not much bigger but puts speedo 3% out
Cheers

I know this is not exactly the same as I have an '02 and went from 265/70/16 to 265/75/16 but I'm sure the affect would be much the same. The tyres will of course fit no problem but you will notice a difference particularly in braking and mid range accelleration, particularly up-hill. If you are at all interested in on-road performance I would not consider anything more major.

I am running 295x75 on mine and have no dramas

I put Cooper 285x75x17 STT and it is like dragging a trainline sleeper behind the car...
80mm lift and it scrapes on full articulation on the inside guards...No prob though..
Changed speedo by 8%...but towards the good direction... 100kmh is only showing 90ish on the speedo...
Now my car gets 13.5 litres per 100 if i drive it like a pussy or 15 litres per 100 if i drive it normal..
Weighs in at 3060kgs with not much fuel in the tank and no water on board..

Hi Kelly,
I have a 2004 3l td Auto that I have put BF's on they are 285-75-16 and I love them. The speedo is out about 10% acording to my GPS, shows 100 and Im doing 110ish, but the off road difference in great, would not go back to the standard 265-70-16. They have now done about 40ks and are still have around 50-60% wear left. Very slight rubbing under the guard off road not not enough to worry me.
Ben.
