There a good fit, I have that same tyre and size, love the extra clearance, But I am running a 2inch body & suspension lift, NEVER going back to the 265/75R16

Do u need the BL to prevent tyre rubbing or will those tyres be OK just with a suspension Lift ??

what do 255/85 equate too? compared to 265/75?s

 

[Navaratourer]

255/85 =33.1 265/75 =31.6 roughly speaking as km2 255-85 actually measure 33.4 '

Can I ask what they cost you?

The KM2's are awesome and so quiet on the road, are 255/85's wider than the 265/75's and are they good to fit on an 8" rim...? Ute will look great with the lift

They are a thinner and taller tyre! Like.a 33x9.5 I believe! I love mine also! Rey quiet!

My MTZs were dead quiet for the first 5,000kms. Give them time im sure they will get louder...

 

[Navaratourer]

$380 fitted, bfg site recomend anywhere from 7 to 10 inch rim, awsome tire.

 

[Sunny Coaster]

Good price, some people try to charge through the roof, well I've only done 2000km on my 265/75 KM2's so plenty of time to decide what size will be next haha

Just playing around with torsion bars and canopy

Is the rubbing something u could put up with or not....

 

[FatBoy89]

Looks like it would have f all articulation front or back without the tyres getting real caught up

 

[Navaratourer]

Tyres actaully miss everything - not that a nav flexes that much

 

[mitch92]

So with the lift do they scrub anywhere?

 

[Navaratourer]

Only wound the torsion bars up today, shackles didnt turn up yet. The tyres only just touch the inside part of the front mud flap, i have removed the mud flap for now as am planning a body lift aswell. So 2 inch spring, 1 inch or larger body will clear everytime.

hey mate. have you used the tyres in mud yet. im looking at doing the exact same to my rig. i have a toughdog lift with constant load springs and ive got her sitting perfectly level at 3inch lift. think there will be any problem with scrubbing? mean looking tyre tho.
