30 x 9.50 tyres any bigger than 235/75/15 ? ?

they fit on without moding?

yes they fit a treat without modding. Not too big not too small.

31" kl71s may fit with minimal modding.

I will take pics on how they fit this evening.

and you got a diff lift of an inch...


not a lot, maybe Mrs Zippy will not notice..

About yes :augie Remember the kl71s have a beastly tread. By the time they are near illegal it will be something like 1/2" diff lift also the ones I had before only had about 6mm tread left.

The nearest equivalent usually given for 30 x 9.50 x 15's is 235 / 75 / 15. But there is a bit of a difference. Kbkel is spot on. Put a 235/75/15 beside a 30/9.50/15 and you will see the latter is slightly taller and slightly wider. Like Kbkel's pic.-not a huge difference but you would definately notice looking at the two together. I did exactly the same thing with one of each tyre unmounted and 30 / 9.50 / 15 is the best part of an inch taller.
