Just done a 2inch lift on my Ute D22, and was wondering what tyre sizes can i look at? Will i be able to fit 33's without body lift?
Right now i have 265-65-16 tyres and rims, what tyres sizes can i look at that are bigger and will still fit under the car without body lift?

thank!

I'm not too clued up on the d22, but I think you can only squeeze 32's under it, besides with the lack of power you wouldn't want to go too big anyway.

Done some more research

With your lift, you can fit 33s but you will need to remove your mudflats and take to your inner guard with a grinder.

Ok, I'll spell it out, the factory ones won't fit he larger rubber, but making something out of 3mm rubber should work fine.

You still need to grind away metal in your inner guard.

If I were you I'd look at the body lift aswell. Rather than cutting out my inner guards etc. better to be lookin at it than lookin for it.

The 2 most common sizes I can think of around the 33" size are

285/75R16 which is a touch under.

Or a 255/85R16 which is a little bigger then a 33. This size is pretty popular with Land Rover folk, and they seem to be everywhere in the world, so you might have some luck with this size.

If you're happy with a 32" tyre, just got with a 265/75R16

Don't waste your money on bling wheels, you'll only fuck them up out wheeling, just get some steel wheels.

Best off talking to your tyre shop, your rims could be 7 inch or anything else in your part of the world.

There should be a stamp on the wheel to tell you what size they are

You'd probably find more specific information on the navara forum regarding exact combinations etc
