Gerrit ek het ook 285/75R16 op die 7" vellings sonder enige probleme.
As jy die 4.5 Patrol het behoort die 15" te pas en hulle kom wel in 8" wydte

Cornelius, hoekom wil jy van 285/75R16 na 305/70R16 verander?

Gerrit die 285 BFG A/T's lyk baie smal op die Patrol, hulle loopvlak is maar 240mm wyd.

Op die foto kan jy sien dat die vellings te smal is.

Smal vellings help om jou "foot print" groter te maak as jy die bande afblaas vir sand ry.

Is daar nadele verbonde aan te smal vellings?
Ek het al gewonder of die smal vellings verhoed dat die band maklik afkom teen lae druk.
Ek ry gereeld teen 0.6Bar in die sand by Atlantis sonder probleme.

Jissie , Cornelius ek kan nie.
Op my GQ het ek juis my mags afgehaal en 235/85x16 opgesit en dit het vir my spiekeries gelyk.The beauty is in the eye of the beholder !!!!
Wat vir my altyd belangrik is op bande is die "load range " want ek sien altyd swaar voertuie vol gelaai soos ons tipe met bande wat onder 900kg ratings het en dit is gewoonlik die bree tipe.
Dit is maar seker persoonlik, ek bv. sal nou nie iewers heen ry om 4x4 challenges te doen nie en my voertuig se klim vermoe te vergelyk met ander nie.Ek soek goeie hoe profiel bande wat ek kan swaar laai en met uitstekende "puncture resistance", n blow out op n grondpad is n vreesaanjaende ondervinding.

Hi Dennis, do you have pics of those rims?
Do you know the amount of off-set on the std Patrol rims?
Thanks
