would say not too go any bigger than 33s with that wheel base. I ran 33s on a 90" wheel base and found it too be a good tyre size too wb. now i have 103" whith 33s but im looking to step up 37s soon

just need to finish choping the front guards more
in my opinoin i would run
80"-85"=31s
85"-94"=33s
95"-99"=35s
100"-105"=37s
this is just a rough guide of what i would run

i ran 33's and 37's on 86.5/ 87"wb
the 33s it went shit loads betta
would have liked to try 35's but didnt
now at 104" on 37's and would change it at all
although ive still nearly found the limits of goin over backwards

im not going up in size its just a bit of a fact finding mission .and the 36s well just a bit of a laugh

reckon it would be a bit spook off road

do a virtual lift and bolt those suckers up. Just remember they are a very noisy tyre though
