Ok so I have been searching the web in vain so hoping for help.

I would like to replace the existing tyres on my 2011 hulux with some AT tyres. Any idea on what size I can go to (bigger) with no mods.

Body lifts. I cant find a specialist in the uk? The nearer Colchester the better.

Thanks

I know the answer, but cant find out til im at work tommorow.

One of my contractors has his l200 lifted with big mud grabber tyres.

The place is in northampton i think. They build monster trucks.

I've got 31" on mine (maybe slightly bigger as they are metric), with no lift. I'll double check later.

No rubbing, not even on the mudflaps.

Be wary of lifts, as the cheap methods (extended shackles and strut spacers) can cause problems - especially with steering arms and brake lines etc.

Cheers. It's the 4.0 V6 which I don't think is sold in the UK.

Currently looking at ARB and IronMan bars to add to the front.

Lifts are hard to do over here, as body lifts are illegal as are extended shackles, and if you go over 2" (including tyres) in lift you need to have it re-engineered for it to be signed off that it's roadworthy.
