Hi everyone..

My plan is to change my MQ (SWB) tyres to bigger size.. and I know that modification is needed for some sizes .

My question is, what is the biggest size I can use with no modification at all?
(I am looking for the widest with wheels 15 or 16)


Regards,

turkiq,
Best to check with rego authorities in your state as to whats a legal fit or not
Each state has different rulings regarding this

Well the skies the limit i would say
The problem here in Aussie (Not knowing where your from )
Is we are restricted within our road rules regarding tyre width and tyre size

O.K MQ MAD, forget that rules , my issue is just technically
I'll be happy if you add your experience on that

well how wide do you want to go?????

if your going to get stupidly wide tyres, then they are going to stick out the guards. so either get huge lift to clear (many inches) or cut the guards. i would cut.

No, simply.. what is the piggest with no modfication?
and when I say the piggest, I am talking about sizes 15 and 16 but with the widest wedth.

Hope it is clear fo everone

Get the rims then sus out the tyres!

I was running 265 75 16 stock, have now added a 50mm body lift. ( it was a freeby) The main advantage with the lift is that the lpg tank does not hang below the chassis rails.

SEE MY AVATAR - MK stock with 265 75 16

 

[crazy_clown87]

you could probably run 31/12.5/15 if you have 8 inch wide rims

I run 315s on a 8 inch rim no probs at all

Hehehe...
To go real wide I'd take Interco TSL SX tyres.
For example, they have 31x13.50 R15 or 33x15.50 R15. And 35x15.50 R15 too.
I doubt a little about this tyres in sand - they dig well. But it's real wide.

I think, you've got to do bodylift for two inches to put that 33". And cut the guards if something goes wrong.

I run 33/12.5/15 on 8" rims with 45mm spring in rear, and standard in front with limited rubbing with rubber flares, bit dropping into holes when turning rubbing against mud flaps

Thank you all,
That's mean I can use 32" with no problem at all good.
regarding width, 12" is enough for me.

so 32x 12 R15 is my choice , with no modification. Any objection ?
