I've still got the 265/75 x 16 Grizzly claws if you want a look at them off my Defender  Plenty of tread and grip  Now I've got rid of the Defender I've not got a particular need for something this size

So keep out of the ruts and select a better line ?  Anyway, what you need is pontoons before bigger tyres.....   ;D
If its not broken you are not trying hard enough....

I am just keeping the same lines as everyone else. Gene i think you have trained the 110 to be alergic to water, especialy getting washed it hates it lol

No problem  :)
Funny enough, like yourself I might be about to get a set of 32's once the current owner takes them off. I've been assured they will fit.  Seems after last sunday we all want bigger tyres lol

Take care

I've got a bit of interest in the grizzly's claws if you want a look at them first.  I note that someone elso on the forum is selling a set of Mickey Thomson's
