Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'VE JUST PUT THE 33" TYRES FROM MY OTHER 4B ON TO MY HILUX TO SEE WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE. THERES NO FOWLING IN THE FRONT AT ARTICULATING, ON THE REAR JUST A LITTLE ON THE REAR OF THE FLARE, THAT I'M OK WITH. POWER WISE I FOUND IT OK AS THE 2.8 DESIEL IS NO POWER HOUSE ANYWAY. THE QUESTIONS I HAVE IS HOW MANY OF YOU GUYS RUN 33", HOW DOES 2.8 HANDLE THEM OFF ROAD. ANY OTHER INFO ON THIS SUBJECT APRECIATED

ive got 33 mickey thompson claws on my 2.8D, goesw alright. i wouldn't want anything larger though. sooner or later new lower gears might be the go.

i run 33's on my lux (see pic), it only has a 2.4L diesel and she goes fairly well off road (slowish on road but only really up hills), the 2.8 should be fine

ive got them rear end of front gaurd trashed but just gave it a touch up with gronder . took inner gard out aswell . mines a 84 2.2 petrol and not bad off road on up hills its a slug , just watch thfoot wells theres a seam on mine i didnt see till to late but it gouged out the tyres , just cut and wekded themno probs now body lift will help

hi i'm customhilux, i like long walks on the beach,



i run 33's on mine 2.8d,

was planning to rn 37's, will do it easy, but now they are goin on my extracab.

im runing 33/12.5/15's on my lux its a 22r and on the road it dosnt seem to bad at all. gets up and goes quite well. have only had it for a week so havnt had a chance to take it off road yet.. but my last 4x4 was alot less powerfull and it went off road quite well for what it was.. so i dont think i will be dissapointed being the amature i am

ive got 35/11.5/15 centipeads on my rn36 with a 22r and that is fine did have 33s with a 18r and that was fine as well got make sure that your clucth is fine and doesnt slip

Hi guys,

I have 31"All Terrains at the moment but want to go 33" Mickey Thompsons. I have a 2" sus lift and my 31" scrub when on a lock turning up a hill. If i get 2" body lift will 33" scrub? will 31" scrub for that matter?

Sorry about the hijack

nah thay wont scrub ive only got a 4inch lift but ive taken the tub off and put a flat tray on it but you should be wright with the body lift

I run 33s on my IFS, and with torsion bars wound up to 100mm, no worries, only have to trim the rubber mudflaps a bit and all sweet.

had no probs out back with standard leafs, and forgot to mention i have a 50mm body lift.

tyres are 33x10.5x15 BFG Muddies.....
