Fanus onthou nog its ook. Met 285's kan jy die bande papper ry as met 255's so in teorie kan jy n grooter footprint he.

Is dit nie anders om nie? :think:

Maar hoe pap wil jy regtig jou bande ry? My bande is gewoonlik 1.2-1.4 wanneer ek offroad gaan. Jy gaan nerrens met 'n 285 kan uit ry waar jy nie met 'n 255 kan nie. (of 'n 235 vir arguments onthalwe). 'n groter wiel diameter gaan jou meer help offroad as 'n breer band.

Interresante ding is dat die ouens oorsee betaal meer vir 255/85r16's as vir 285's...

P.S. maar ek stem saam 285/75r16 is die perfekte grote vir 'n patrol... maar eish, R5k meer vir 'n stel....

Ek stem dat band komposisie en patroon meer effek het op traksie as wat die grote het, maar dit was nie een van die faktore onder bespreking nie.

Ek het 32x11.5's op. Dis die nouste band op 'n 15" velling wat 32" deursnee het. Ek sou graag nouer gaan, maar nie kleiner in deursnee nie.
Mag ons ons kenniskry met lekkerkry aanhoukry.
