Bigger tyres on a rangie

Post by **Nick Walker** » Mon Sep 22, 2003 8:44 pm

Hi
Im looking at fitting bigger tyres to my Rangie 1986 4Door.I already have a 2" old man emu lift going to do 1" body lift and rangie spares flared arches.looking at fitting 34"10-50 tyres maybe 35's.The people that have bigger tyres do you have any problem with the tyres hiting the front and rear edges of the rear wheel tub

2" spring lift
2" body lift
generous hacking of the guards
flares

you will fit 35's

Also don't forget to get offset rims for 35" -80 mm is good

when i was looking for a 4b bout a yr ago i drove a 86 rangie that had 34 maybe 35 simex's
it had a 2"susp lift and a 1" body lift
i couldnt turn into a roundabout
the front tyres just kept rubbin on the guards
to do a u turn i went forward then back then forwrad
it was shocking
i suggest hack the shit outta the guards and do a 2"body lift
and mayb 3-4"sus lift
and deffenitley have a decent offset on ya rims
like Fubar paul sed 80 mm is preety good

Here are a few pics of my truck on 34" x9.5 TSL's. There is some trimming, but not much.

I have 35" Simex ETs on my Disco with Landy_man's equation:

2" SL + 2" BL + hacking/flares = 35"s!

Elementary, my dear Watson. :finger:

Have you got offsett rims? If yes you need to adjust your turning circle.
