Falkens WP's tyre size on Navis Gelida

[craig808]

Hi all

I've just ordered some Navis Gelida 17's for my T6.1 4motion and am probably going to put some Falken Wildpeaks on.

Please can someone advise which tyre size to go with.

I'm thinking 235/65/17 ?

Did you get the tyres and have you had any rubbing. Thinking about getting the same combo

That’s (235/65/17) the wheel and tyre size I have on mine. The Gelida is a lovely wheel.

Thats about a 10% increase in size plus a more aggressive tyre. How's the gearing ?

Is that on standard suspension?

Assume that question was for me ?

Gearing is very close to OE, ride quality is great and not noisy either. Im a happy bunny

No its lowered about 50mm on Koni definition kit. The rears are adjustable just in case

I agree. But due to the width, as soon as I go through some mud the front tyres throw it all up the side of my van. Because I'm always on farm tracks it's rarely clean.

Definitely doesn't look as clean as yours

Yes I need to consider mudflaps
