Running the 39G Series 2a with the 2.6 engine.

Just bought new tires BF Goodrich MT 255/85-16.

Anyone having similar tires that could tell me what kind of speed you can reach.
My experience so far is a maximum of 60 km/h (37 mph isch) before the engine seems to come through the bulkhead.

Thanks
You may lose a little bit as the tyres are slightly smaller than a 900x16, but you should still be able to get 80kph out of one without too much difficulty. They are very low geared and noisy, you just tune it out eventually. ;)
