Any update? Any rubbing issue? I had a set of toyo tires AT on another rig and had no problems with them. Too bad because they might not fit on our Transit, so I'm thinking of getting the Bridgestone or Hankook.

225/75 R15 Bridgestone Duelers fit

Postby eresseraca » Mon May 29, 2017 7:06 pm

Sorry, been busy and never got around to take a pic nor post it.

Spring arrived and the studded Nokian are in storage. I went with Bridgestone Duelers in the end, took a bit of a risk with 225/75R15 but they have a decent load rating and look nice and beefy. It's a tight fit and they do rubs occasionally in the front at full turn on a bumpy gravel parking lot, but nothing that I worry about so far. Keep in mind we use it for adventure more than a max loaded hauler. So the story might be different for someone who haul a lot of stuff around all the time :)

The van is still unpolished at matte in this pic but had a good two days of Autoglym Super Resin Polish last weekend so it's sparkling at the moment ;)

Thanks mate, appreciate it!

Yup, those are the wheel nut covers I posted a link to earlier, I think I ended up ordering them from Aliexpress.com in thje end, as they were a lil cheaper there, but the same ones for sure. They had silver colored ones as well, but unfortunately only for smaller sizes. So I had to take grey ones but they look pretty nice as well. I did the axles and drums with a rotating steel brush and sprayed em hammerite silver at the same time I swapped to the Duelers. Well worth it, looks so much fresher now 8)
