    I thought 255/60/15 would be too tall?

     

    i just bought M&H 245/55/15

    Same diameter as the 235/60. Just a bit wider.

    hmm so m&h make a 245? How does it fit in the guard?

    I wanna try borrow a 255 to see if it can be done on a standard rear end.

    245 fits easy on my VY.

    Try 255 if you can. I’m just pretty sure it’s a taller tyre.

    i’ve run a 255/50r16 et streets on mine at the drags, we had to roll the lip abit on the guards just to make shore there was enough clearence…

    sitting static it missed but just alittle too close for when the suspension moved it would “just” rub the lip if not rolled up alittle
