Hey everyone, i just got my new L200 Triton Last friday and I really love it, its a Katana CRT (chilean name) 4x4 diesel, manual and White. Because it is not the full equiped version thay sell here it comes with only 205/80/16 and 16x6 wheels. So thats the first upgrade im going to make, im between 245/75R16 on 16x7" wheels or 31x10,5R15 n 15x82 wheels, the thing is that I have Motocross bike and I dont want the tires to rub when I mount the bike on the pick up, so i´d appreciate if you help me decide. Thanks

By the way this weekend i took it to its first off road trip to some dunes nearby, here are some pics

cheers

Bienvenido

I think you could run 245/75/16 without any rubbing with a motorcross bike in the back. I've done it a few times. I'm now about to run 265/75/16 and I think I'll still have clearance with a bike in the back as the weight isn't that much.
