ME Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Chaps Our Essex shooting "bad boy" currently has 215 / 75 / R15 tyres on it. The truck doesnt go on the roads only round fields, it doesnt even have an MOT. It never gets above 2nd gear creeping round the fields. Can I squeeze 225 / 75 / R15 tyres on it ? Thanks Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 225 are just wider so should be no problem will make steering heavier use more fuel etc but should fit it is after all only one size wider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 225's won't be a problem matt, don't worry too much :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 225's will be fine and 235's should also be ok, the worst case scenario would be they scrub at full lock they should also all fit on your rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conygree Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) you will get more with 235/75 - 15 as used on rangers etc. should be ok if they rub a bit, fit some spacers. They will be both wider and larger diameter, look on some tyre websites to check out diameters etc. I jacked up my old 4x2 ranger and went from 205/75 - 14 to 235/75-15 ( from 27" o/d to 31"o/d) fitted some spacers and all went well, no real difference with gearing off road :blink: Edited April 13, 2010 by pigeon popper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
