Tyres on an NH

Post by Outlanded »

Hey Guys

Looking at throwing some new tyres on her, currently got 31x10.5x15.

Will it make much difference going to a 31x11.5 ?

Im talkin like fuel efficiency / pick up speed of vehicle?

Its an NH 3.0 auto.

Cheers

firstly not sure they do a 31x11.5x15 did u mean 32x11.5x15?

if u did mean 31x11.5 then there will be 3/5ths of fuck all difference, same with the 32's its only and inch bigger

its only an inch wider, slight increase in friction may increase fuel ever so slightly

wider foot print off road so would be of benifit

iv got roughly 33x11.5x16 just got them as a jump up from what were a little smaller than 32x9.5....the performance i dont think has suffered as much as ppl make it out to be..but what makes up for the 2 and a half kilowatts you loose is the road holding and stability has really improoved..espesially if you put on patroll offset wheels like i did..i drive my paj hard and i feel no difference
j-top 3l v6 2+2 33s rear locker 4.9s thats it
