And breathe.

16” or 17” - although you will be limited to 17 or larger if you have the bigger brakes fitted. Have a look here if you want some off-the-shelf ideas -

Otherwise search ‘swamper’ or ‘all-terrain tyre’ or ‘off-road’.

Hi there, where did you get them from and how much? Just what I'm looking for!

I am going for:

OZ Rally raids with 235/65/17 Pirelli Scorpion AT+ tyres

Was quoted just over £1700 delivered. Better start saving I guess…

@simonjmcintyre after allot of searching around these were a bit of a eBay find/DIY put together steels were 400 and tyres just over, all in fitted at a local shop I probably spent just shy of 1000.

Any rubbing on full turn and bumps?

 

[Cb83]

Nothing whatsoever @primo

Will 16" wheels fit a T32? I got a set of blindo wheels at my workshop

 

[Long tall John]

No because of the size of your brakes. You need 17 inch rims minimum. What size tires have you got on them because they are well cool.

 

[The Bear78]

Not all T32's have the larger brakes so 16's might fit. Share a photo of the caliper.

Will this size tyre fit underneath in the spare tyre slot without modification?

I haven't pulled the trigger on these yet but I think you need a separate bracket. Maybe someone else with experience can say 100% either way. Personally I am going to carry a tyre repair kit if the need arises.
