Hi, I have a 89 vouge. The biggest tyre we could run on it with no mods inc spoiler is 245/75/16 (30.5x9). They will touch radius arms on standard rims.

thanks mate, so a good set of offset rims would be the go in otherwords. I have three sunraysia's any one got another one LOL.

Will only touch on full lock, off set rims will cause tyres to touch the spoiler. So It will have to fall off! Allso to fit offset rims you will need to talk to an engineer.

A pleasure. you will be suprised how much difference it will make.
I have run BFGoodrich Longtrail T/A for 80000 km. I live on Black soil and Rock and they dont chip, a more agresive tyre does. They also like sand.

I am running 255/65 R16 on the alloys but,

I have a 30 mm body lift and my front springs are quite stiff. I think better front end flex would see the tyres touching the shock towers.
