quickie:

what size tyres are fitted as standard to a 53 plate lc 4?

i've got some 245/70/17  grabber at2's , will they be ok on my new bus?

Not the resident tyre expert, but I don't think that they will fit your rims. With different rims, the tyres will certainly fit, but 245 onto a rim that usually takes 265? That might cross a rim size. Someone will be along in a moment, I'm sure.

google has turned up an oe tyre size of 265/R65/17,  which is about the same radius as my 245/70/17 's.

just need to know if the narrower tyre will fit the rim.

ok, found a rim width calculator, my old tyre will fit a 17" rim between 7 and 8.5 inches, which poses the question what is the rim widthe of the wheels fitted a 53 plate lc 4 120.

if its over 8.5" wide i'll either have to shell out for a new set of AT's, or but steel wheels to fit my AT's to.

I think they are 7.5 inch.

Yep 265/65x17 on 7.5 rims on the UK 120. The UN basic one on steel wheels is 245/70x17. IIRC

phew, thanks everyone, i've got to get the at's taken off my discoand get some part worns put on, then i can trade it in for my cruser, then i've got to get the AT's fitted to the landcruiser.

pain in the *beep*, but i cannot drive a 4x4 with road tyres on, there's nothing  looks worse than getting stuck in an offroader.

hopefully will get the tyres sorted tomorrow then i can pick up my new car
