P38 Tyre sizes ??

66Dunc · Feb 21, 2014

I am thinking of having a 2nd set of tyres that I can change over to for doing GRR's and " soft " off road driving . I have 255/55/18 tyres at the moment but I would like to put 15" wheels on . What tyre sizes would then give the same height / profile .. Thanks Duncan

255 x 70 x 15 would give you the same rolling radius but why bother, and why 15" wheels?
Just stick some General Grabbers on what you have now and you're sorted.

15" on a P38? Should be 16" or 18"

16" General Grabbers and you'll handle most stuff.

Slippy out there today.

To be honest if you're going anywhere really slippy then investing in diff-locks might get more help. Depends what year yours is because the later ones had a clever braking of the spinning wheel built into the traction control. Mine's too old though.
