Will take her out on a trail the weekend just to flex her out a bit,O yes i only have the van two days and hit a traffic sign in a constructin area and landed up scratching it from front bumper to the back tacking a chunk out the door,
very empressed with myself :thumbdown:

There is something bothering me,my lux is all over the show,cant figure out if it is the suspention or the tyres causing the problem,it feels very top heavy,and "swervy" if i can explain it like that...

The tyres are 265/75/16 and are inflated at 2 bar with standard suspention. Has anyone experienced this before?
Pitty i did not test drive it with the standard tyres on.

Inflate your tyres a bit more to say 2.5 bar and see if there is any difference.

Those KM2's feels a bit loose for a few km's then it settles
