Vario tyres

[bonzo2002]

I have a MWB Mercedes Vario (2wd) panel van and want to get a bit of extra height. Does anyone know if you can fit 9.5r 17.5 tyres to the 2wd? I had them fitted to the 4wd I used to own and they raised it about 15cm from memory (they also look really good). Not sure if they will fit without rubbing on the 2wd though. Cheers!

Have you looked at Mitchelin XZL 8,25R16? I myself use XZL 275/80R20 for my Vario DA 814 4x4 and like them very much.
