eerm no lol 29"205/80 a little more for the225's <1/2"
i don't want to buy twice the 215/80 around 30" is what i'd like
and 750<or> 32" will need trimming i'm sure
will be buying new NO re treads this time
add: 30/9.5/15 29"
but i do like the 70's pram look :laugh:

215/80/16 will give you 29.5 high and 8.5" wide. 30/9.5/16 will be the same height but and inch wider.

Guys I still can't make my mind up I have decided on all terrain tyres (remoulds) but I don't know if I should go for 195/80 or 205/70 is there much difference? I know they are both roughly the same height but will the width help with the off-roading?
