Hi Bob, I'm a little compromised motionally due to snapping Achilles - so I'm not going out to have a look (plastered to upper-thigh :( ). I'll post the data soon.

| plastered to upper-thigh |
sound rather restricting :(
how long for ?
I am still enjoying the fug weather and putting of any serious work on her until winter comes.
Running repairs and a few easy mods is enough.
If you know anyone with some 1.4 ratio rockers for sale gives us a shout.

OK.
Rear:
BF Goodrich Trailmaker II - 235 75 x 15
I bought these from my local car tuning establishment in Glasgow, from their tiny off-road section.
Front:
Max Sport - 185 65 x 15
These came from Demon Tweeks and are actually a motorsport remould tyre with an aggressive rally tread.

Thanks for that and I though it was funny to :D
May be it's something I said :blink:
I presume the 185 at the front is to keep the steering load down?
Why are so many fitting 14 at the fron t is there an advantage is it purely cosmetic

Just got my new cast below knee, so at last able to crutch it along to my porker :D and got the figures of interest.
Front = 195/60 R15 88H (Bridgestone Potenza RE88)
Rear = 255/60 R15 (Fulda Tramp 4x4H)
I like big wheels. :ph43r:
