Question for those with Compomotive wheels

[Kaaae]

What tire and sizes are you running? Are you running Rods, LLAMS or IIDTool? What is your normal highway drive height? Did you gave to modify your wheel wells to fit your tires?


Thanks, I am struggling on which tires to put on my rims. Trying to decide wether I keep my 19" for my weekly commute or just be on the 18" full time. I drive 150 miles a day....

I picked 275/60R18 Yoko Geolandar AT-S. I do have the Llams module as you know so I could have fit larger tires, but am not too keen about running with the suspensions raised all the time just for the sake of having larger A/T tires on. I am not worried about alignment or wear (I'd get an alignment if I were to permanently lift the car with Llams or rods.) The LR4 handles quite sloppily when you raise it by as little as 1.5-2" over normal height. Since it's my daily driver, I don't want to upset the on-road handling too much, so I stuck to an A/T tire size that won't rub anywhere no matter the height, and is (supposedly, not sure if it will stay that way) quiet and competent on wet and dry.

As a bonus, the spare fits under the car, no need to deflate it.

hi,
im writing from austria,
i use the 18" rims from compomotive with cooper st maxx tires 275/70/18
they are slightly higher than 33" tires.
it is quite a bit of work - but it is worth to do it because you upgrade the
lr4 to a next "level".....

Very nice floda! Did you paint the rear wondow or is this a special model?

 

[floda]

thanks!
no this is a commercial truck - if you buy it here like this you can save tax.
mine is very plain and simple without the features of the hse or se model.
but it has the v6 diesel engine and the 8 speed transmission and that was important to me.

I love your truck - looks awesome. I wish we could get the V6 diesel here in the US.

I am running 265/60/18 Maxxis Bravo 771 on my Compo. It's slightly larger ratio than stock so no problem with any height setting. No mods on suspension.
