Yup it has the widest passenger car tyres manufactured in India. However there are wider tyres available on brands like Pirelli, Michelin, Goodyear, Bridgestone etc.

But the question is why would you want to fit any woder tyres on an Endeavour?? It already has extra wide tyres & putting on a wider size would a futile effort.

265/70-15 is the stock size....

Already Endeavour isn't known for its ride quality then why go in for a low profile tyre n make it worse...

I would suggest u same stock size but different rubber....Michelin or Bridgestone

Dont even think about it dude.....the suspension will go from bad to worse!
The stock MRF tyres have performed well on the Endeavour might i guess giving imported brands a shot wouldnt hurt. At 60,000Kms my stock MRF Endeavour tyres are still looking good which is creditable since it has been used a lot on the expressway at high speeds and undergone a lot of bad roads.
