    What Heavy Duty Avant Battery?

    I need the largest heaviest duty biggest AH and CCA rated battery possible that will fit an Avant and is going to be able to handle heavy duty electrical use in my car.


    Can folks recommend some batteries they have used and what is the biggest size battery that will fit?

    Is 280mm the biggest or will some of the 300mm batteries fit?

            I use an orange top Optima, don't think you could squeeze much else in an Avant as tis pretty tight in there, but perhaps a Red Top gel battery would suffice.
