Max tire size MQ

Post by JelmerMQ »

What is the maximum tires size under a SOA MQ? Will 36" fit without rubbing fenders? I don't want to cut the fenders. I still use my anti-roll bar.

not too sure mate but depends are you going to cut guards lift it more? or just soa it?

with bigger rubber u will always get scrubbing unless you tub the guards

you may find that 36's will fit but will scrub unless you extend bump stops

if they dont fit add a body lift

I got 33" now and they don't rub. I planned on 35" or 36" so a bodylift is neccesary.
