cheers guys and hello

I read on another thread here that 215/80 R15's will fit without rubbing - or at least nothing too bad- lol, remains to be seen i guess. - these are 28.54 inches tall.

so im looking for an agri tyre similar, and what I've found is a 6.70-15 size, which are 28.8"
(the specs are in the 'other details' tab)


www.millertire.com/products/implement-ti...grip-traction-4-ply/

its only an inch closer to the ground than the 31 (ish) 7.50 R16's and I can live with that.

If you are in agriculture, look out for some vaderstad drill tyres. They are 195/80 15, which is a common size to fit to unmodified Jimnys.

I got offered a set of these tyres, I can only imagine they'd be horrendous on the road, anyone have any experience with them on road?

Cheers
Mike
