Tyre Size Fitting

[jimmy_jay89]

Hey kids,

i was wondering if anyone can help me with seeing that 265/75/16 tyres fit onto the D40 just need to borrow a wheel and tyre for 5mins..

preferably on the west side

They do fit the D40. I run them on mine.
Is yours Spain or Thai build?

You may have to bend the front of the inner guard out a little with a heat
gun to prevent rubbing on full lock but that should be all.

i put a set of 265 75 16's on today and they scrub on the drivers side only,
I molded the inner guards back a bit with a heat gun but it wasnt enough, so back i go on the weekend and try again.

The bloke at the tyre place suggested when i have wheel alignment next to get the caster pushed forward. Does anyone know about doing this???

When I picked up my ST D40 stock as a rock i went straight to the tyre service, and put a set of 265/75/16' mickeys on and no scrubing at all, and thats before the lift.
