75 profile is about the biggest you can fit without suspension modification and without cutting the rear arches hope this helps Iain

245/75x16 is about the biggest you can fit on a standard D2, thats what I had on mine and it worked very well. Gives about an extra 1" ground clearance under the diffs. Gearing will be slightly affected in that acceleration away from the lights is a bit slower but cruising is better. i had a TD5 with no engine tweaks and it was fine, if you have any sort of power upgrade even better. Looks pretty good too :)
