33 inch vs 31 on a 60 series
Just thinking about going bigger on my hj60 & was wondering what to expect if i go from 31's to 33's ? Also can you fit 33x12.5x15 tyres to 15x7 sunnies,( trying to save money) Cheers
33's
I have gone from 31's to 35's on a hj60. It's a little slow on the hills but awsome in the bush. LOVE IT!!
Hey There
i went from 31's to 33's a little while back, best thing ive done.
my speedo is now just about spot on, i dont drag the diffs and U-bolts any where near as much, fuel consumption went up from 12L/100k to around 13L/100k but i drive it pretty hard. My 33's are on 10" Rims and it handles as good as a 60 will. All in all 33's feel more suited to the car.
12.5's on 7" rims, a few tyre places wont fit them on the vehicle, i tried to get 32x11.5's on my 7" factory sahara chromies but some places wouldnt fit them. they said rims were below the mimimum width requirement for the tyre. I wouldnt like to have 12.5's on 7's, it just wouldnt feel right imho.

yeah same same - running 33" JT2's and you notice the gutlessness on hills a bit more and fuel consumption has gone up a little but when you hit the mud/bush it really helps to clear the giant front diff under the 60's .
i used to bottom out on it regularly - now lookin at possibly 35"s - but to fit them you'll need a 2" body lift
