27 x 8.5R14 tyre fitment

It was on mine I just decided on the splitty to have the lettering on the inside?

 

@Ozziedog @stirlingmoz are these the same size as yours?

Thems the puppies. Didn’t know you could get them here with the white lettering already on. There are at least four others on this site running these Maxis A/T type tyres that I know of maybe even more. I think the look is ‘Purposeful’ that’s possibly the best description

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,, They looks ace.

 

Sure are. Mine are Maxxis Big Horns 27 x 8.5 R14.

They fit stock late bay wheels. My pickup is stock height with stock brakes etc.

Those tyres fit under the arches, no problem and no rubbing - plug and play

Cheers guys that's all I wanted to know.

As above

 

your bus @brianjbox ? looks ace - was hoping youd go "full send" through the puddle

 

I like my bus to much for that

 

You do need to be careful.. I was driving my bus through 4 to 6 inches of water once trying to drive along a flooded B road.. then I found a massive pothole..

 

Ozzie I got my wormdrive and also got the steels powder coated. What tyre pressure are you running? Or are you sticking the the standard pressures?

I'll jump in first, running ours stock pressures...185 like yours. Liking the way the fitter has lined up the tyre marks with the valve as per...

 

Thanks for the info mate

I run mine at 30psi all round.

I found the stock pressures in the bigger tyres a bit squidgy.

30 psi keeps the steering feel pretty stock.

Just sayin

Stock is 30 front, 40 rear.

 

44psi rear on my double cab according to the sticker on the column.

Must check my steering column sticker but I think it’s an aftermarket copy - not the original.

@iblaze sticker is likely to be more accurate.

Thanks

Stirlingmoz

 

Thanks for that. Is that rear tyre pressure for when it’s fully loaded ?

I wonder if mine being mine being fully ‘unloaded’ would bounce around a bit with 44psi in the back.

Time for a bit of testing while the weather is so nice.

I understand 44 is for fully loaded on the pick up variants. I'd try and persevere with 40 on the rear as a starting point?

 

Mine came back from powder coating with 50 psi it was like having power steering
I've now put them to these pressures, and all good. I went for a really good run 10 miles ish nothing on the back wasn't bouncing about.

Isn't the difference in pressure between front and rear important too?.
Sure there's a formula for that
