Ordered these 16x6.5 rims from Canterbury tyre & mag
What is the largest tyre that will fit without modification?
Already searched the forum and think it is 225/75/16
But wanted to make sure before I ordered anything.
Thinking BFG AT KO2 but open to suggestions
thanks

Richard.
I had a customer in yesterday with the same model, he had 225 70 16 which fitted ok, it was a struggle to get the spare wheel into the space available even after cutting and reworking the carrier. I thing the 75 ratio would be just to tight a fit. Eric.

Thanks Eric, might have to look at a rear tyre carrier with that size and using the space underneath for a water tank like Aussie 2002 4x4,
should have ask what size fits without rubbing on full lock without removing my mud flaps or cutting anything.

245/75R16 fits on the 2WDs with factory 16" wheels. Fitment will depend on your wheel offset. I needed to put a tie wrap around part of the front mudflap to keep it from catching when reversing at full lock sometimes.

if you trim the mudflap a little, 235/85R16 will fit. Anything more than 31.5" means you need to trim/flatten the body seams in the front arches, and remove front mudflaps.
