Patto, I wish I knew what the guys were doing to get 10.2 with 285's and an auto, my best is 10.5 on the freeway only with 265's.

I'm interested in this. I live in NSW as well but wasn't aware of this. Has everyone else in NSW running 265/75 16s got an eng cert?
Thanks.

You're right, it's not worth the trouble it could cause for 10mm and 14mm.
Better for economy too. Good looking tyres and should be as tough as according to the blurb. Saw $245 as a special so they aren't cheap.

275/65/17's give a 40mm lift, which should be totally legal for those states with the 50mm rule (don't know which ones they are) and the spare fits fine.
