basically wanting opinions...

looking at getting some kumho kl71's and wondering what size to get them in.

I will be doing some miles not many 5K a year roughly and greenlaning/p&p days.

like the look of chunkier tyres but like the height of 235.

Thanks in advance

oh and its for a swb shogun dont know if it makes any odds

235 is the width.
Big difference in the size of tyres between 235/75/16 & 235/85/16

Have you found someone that sells KL 71's in 235/75/16 ??
Could it have been 235/70/16 that you have seen,
or even 245/70/16 ?

eg
www.camskill.co.uk
www.tyresdirectuk.co.uk
www.4x4tyres.com

If you like the height of the 235/85 16 then that is what you want. the 235/75 16 will be a smaller diameter tyre
