get the old ones whilst you can,.........the new km2's are on the market now and the old pattern are getting harder to find........ devon 4x4 have 5 left so get them whilst they are there if you have 1 or 2 tyres that "will do for another month" lol

I will have 5x 255/85s for sale in October if anyone wants them

the spare has never touched tarmac. I will be buying a new set of the Km2s as i believe they will better suit my needs.

KM2's look quite noice. Was thinking of getting General Grabber AT2's in about 2 months whenmine need replaced, but they look better for mud.

Got a set of General Grabber AT2s going if you're still looking Hammy. Reasonable amount of tread on em. And boost alloys to boot!

235/85/R16. 5. Spare never touched the road.

They is about 2.5" bigger so 1.25 closer to the wheel arch.

whats the difference between the 255 and the 235?

Also, will that still not rub on the wheel arches? Sorry, I'm a dunce.

Tyres sizes are done like this

Tyre width 205, 235, 255, etc x tyre wall height as a percentage of the tyre width. 65/75/85 etc and then rim size 15,16, 18,22 etc.

So a 255/65/16 is a tyre that is 255mm wide and 65% of the width high so 255/100X 65 = 165.5(approx) x 2 for top and bottom of tyre. = 331mm + 16" (rim size)

235/85/16 = 235/100X85 x 2 =399.5mm

so 68mm difference/2 = 34mm lift & 34mm closer to ya rim.

so it's 20mm too short for the width?

If you say so. Still don't see how it'll fit if its narrower, but i'll take your word for it. A pikey would never lead anyone astray

Seriously, though, ta chap.
