New member intro ! Montero 4x4 !

[6G74_Monty]

Reason is guys, this car is my daily driver i drive from the university to hospitals to home everyday. i want a highway tire "feel" with the ocasional off road capability... i mean I've taking her to pretty crazy spots in my stock 265/70r15 bfg all terrains so im sure the extra 2" in diameter and 2.5" in width will be just what i need. Also i don't want to change gearing and keep it as fuel efficient as possible as gas is 2$ a liter here ! Plus OME only raises 1.25" so it will look pretty much as stock.

I've seen them on eBay.

Have a link by chance?

Go with at least a 32". 31's were a factory stock size for the Montero, as listed in my owner's manual as the optional tires.

Not only will it look funny, but if you think you need any sort of lift for the off roading you may do, then tire size will give your axles/diffs more ground clearance.

Additionally, highway MPG should go up slightly with a larger tire.

I just googled them yesterday and saw some on eBay Aus. I've seen them here and there over the years, you just have to dig a little.
