HI
I have an 07 Rodeo which i use for work, shoeing horses, with a custom built back on it, some of the places i go are a little out of reach to a normal van. I bought it with an Isuzu fitted tow pack, it has the step bumper too and on sereral occasions i've caught the tow bar and elec plugs! Could any one tell me a- the biggest tyre I could fit, it has 245/70 on 16 inch rims and b- if i could upgrade the rear suspension as i carry quite a lot of weight all day everyday!! thanks

The Rodeo rear end should be good for 1045kg / 1090kg depending on model. I have had mine well loaded and it gets a little squishy but still holds up OK. At some point in the next couple of weeks I will be switching to longer rear shackles to give 2" lift and also changing tyres - im looking at 32" on the 18" rims ... you should get away with 265/75R16???
