    Max legal tyre size, lift, etc.

    Athol Mullen is the go-to automotive engineer. Somewhere at Cardiff I think. Does having an engineering cert attached to a vehicle rego make it more of a 'red flag' for the police, etc. who are enforcing the laws?

    Max legal tyre size, lift, etc.

    Really big tyres are illegal here. Beadlock wheels are also illegal here (for public roads). Pretty much everyone I've asked says 285/75/r16 is perfectly legal (in itself) for an 80 series, but anything bigger is not. NSW has very anally retentive rules but 99 pct of the time you don't get...

    Max legal tyre size, lift, etc.

    My option if pushed by the l.a.w will probably be to reduce the lift not the tyre size. One thing I've found with the 285/75r16 tyres is the speedo reads pretty much exactly correct (note being pre-8/92 it's the mechanical cable-driven speedo not the later electric signal driven one) when I've...

    There's a view that it's deliberate to try and force people to want to replace older vehicles with new ones and limit people's ability to increase their off-road vehicle's actually off-road usability. I guess with most 4wd's used most of the time on-road (since most of the population lives in...

    No factory tint that I know of on my 80's glass. I'm in the process of replacing all the doors as a result of ridding the vehicle of those awful fibreglass TJM flares that were hiding rust. Barn doors already replaced (which gives the added bonus of dark tint [already on the glass] and a third...

    Flexy flares are here - just need the time to fit them.

    Max legal tyre size, lift, etc.

    What is the max legal tyre size in Australia for an 80 series? Cop at an rbt chatted me about the 285/75r16 tyres that have been on the 80's wheels for the last 7 yrs. I'm in NSW the anal state . Cop threatened me with sending the 80 for a blue slip inspection. It's NSW reg'd and passed rego...
