Know this should be in the Debtfinder section but would appriciate a fast answer, does anyone know what pressures the BFG Trac Edges on the 110 should be running?

Cheers,
David.

I'd start with them the same as normal and see how it handles.

It will depend on how much weight you plan on carrying and you need to factor in how fast you drive.

If you plan on driving it about town at 30 mph or less then it doesn't really matter.

It's a TD - I'm hardly going to be going for a World Speed Record.

And weight wise I can't see any really heavy work in it's future, although it seems to have already become known as a Load Lugger within the family so that you cannot be sure of.

I'm just wondering as I'm pretty sure they are not the standard LR Size (235/85R16) I'm pretty sure most of the 110s I see have smaller ones on.

235/85r16=750x16 doesn't it? so they are the right size for a 110.

A Range Rover should be 28front and 35back, thing is they are heavier empty and llighter when full, if you don't intend carrying much then drop the rear to about 30 (you can do this on the Rangie too according to the handbook).

So I'd say about 28 and 30/32 when it's empty

Recently sold my 235/85 machos to my boss, who had 750x16 on the 2.5N/A Defender.........
The 235/85 tyres are bigger than the 750x16, not much taller, but definately wider.

They are standard LWB Rims, it's just the Tire itself looks taller than a lot of 110s I see. Not the rims, but the sidewalls.
