In need of a set of smallish tires on rims

[crustyBJ60]

looking to borrow something smaller than my 7.50 r16 for now.
Like 26-27 inch smallish. Ridiculous low profile rollers. On rims.

Prefer at least legal tread, so if I have to move it (and I will have to move it) you know. No drama.
Only needed for a few months, currently having garage height issues. Will continue for some time.

Troopy hits the sheds for good once the rain starts.
Let me know what you've got.
Future parts considerations or alcohol involved.
Cheers

Kinda far away, have a set of 235/75/15 tires on rims sitting in my shed for years...you can borrow them. Less than 3000KM on them, like new.

235 75 r 15 convert to about 28.9 inches. Too big for what I'm after.
Thanks though.

Let some air out? Put some sand bags in the back?

My Prado came with tiny tires, but they are long gone...sorry.

Glad your rig is here though; can't wait to see it.

I've got a set of 15" rims you can borrow til' you get sorted out. Find some cheap rubber on used vic maybe...

I've got some 235's (28"ish) 2 differnt sets of 2 lots of tread still. Not mounted though.

 

[crustyBJ60]

Right o. I've got a spare set of 16" wheels... 80 series stockers.
Looks like the best course of action is to buy a cheap set of little rubbers and mount on my steelies.
If I've got to pay to mount, might as well own 'em.
Troopy failed inspection today, few little things to sort. They picked up on the rubber not being DOT. So definitely need some tires now.
Was gonna swap the burb's wheels, but the Chev centres are too small. s***e.
Thanks For the replies.

s***ty! I've got a set of 34 LTB's on 15" rims, or the stocker 235's on the "skinner" if that'll work?! All matching rubber.

Rigpig... Cheers mate.

Came across these while perusing craigslist. Sounds about like the right size. Not sure how much buddy wants for them tho.
Michelin Tires 215 / 70 - 16" With 85% tread left - $123 (saanich)

I guess I'm a bit late, but no room for a Costco type tent shelter?

would rather pay for storage or roll on smallish tires. I've not had the best experience with Costco shelters.
no worries, its all sorted for now. I'll be building troopy some flash and entirely suitable new "accommodation" shortly.

Rigpig... Cheers mate.

Yup no worries!
Certainly the cleanest 40 series Troopy i've seen. Now that my shop is just about done, it's incentive to get the "Skinner" done to get some wheeling time in.
Cheers!

I spied it myself.... almost crashed staring at it whilst driving. Thats one sexy truck.
