G'day, i just recently bought 1991 swb patrol. It has 2 inch lift (previous owner said it's 2 1/2..) with 33 inch worn (crap) cooper st's :? ...

Im after a new set of tyres soon and just wondering if i should go 35's or stay 33's..
I realise i would need 2 inch body lift and some front gaurd trim (maybe).
Will the 35's just create hassle's or is it worth to get them?
also i don't have lower'd diff ratio's..

thanks :)

depends what you want to do with it... i got 36"s on mine with 2 " sus 2" body and very little guard chop i havent changed any ratios but mine is turbod and still has plenty of grunt .... i still run 33's touring plus depends how big the tyre actually is to whether you will need to modify your rear wheel carrier.... cheers tye

33s, will still be very capable with 33s and much more pleasant for everyday use.

And until you answer that, you wont get a decent answer.

Well it will be my daily drive and weekend toy pretty much... Although i would like to go south with it maybe to snow one day.
