265/70/R17 or 265/75/R17 on Prado GX

I intend to go for larger diameter wheels for my 2004 Prado GX. Did anybody ever try 265/70/R17 or even 265/75/R17 on 17/7.5 rims? What is the legal situation in Qld?

Thanks and Cheers Peter

had both on my gx on 7.5 rims and i like the 70 series, not exactly legal buy stds but its hard to pick unless you exactly looking for that, check it out with your insurance company if you are unsure. cheers samo

For the most part tyres have been covered rather extensively, have you tried the search feature the forum has?
To answer your question though - 265/70R17s are illegal without an engineering cert in most (if not all) states of australia - inc. QLD.
