Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'm thinking of getting a set of 35x10.5x15 pedes to put on my GU with a 3' lift . I was wondering if anyone has the same sort of setup on their GU & could possibley give me some info (ie; rubbing, etc) or possibley post a pic of theirs to give me an idea on how it looks . I had a quick read in the bible section & some say they rub & others say they have no dramas with them . I mainly want to see if they look like balloons on it

Cheers

steve roly had q78's on a 3.0 GU with 2/3in lift. apparently no rubbing.

I run a 3" lift and 35 MT Bajas on a GU, the only thing I had to do was remove the front mud flaps for when on full lock they touched other wise no problems.

Cheers

Thanx lads , anyone got any pics of their rig with 35's with a 3' lift I'm curious to see how they look on .

i got 285 mtrs on my gu with 3 inch lift and they rub on the rear inner guard and on the top of the rear inner so i would imagine that 35s would do the the same. if you have a heavier rate spring it may not flex enough to rub?

Hey Bug,

Have a look at RoldIT's car in the bible (or search). He has 36" pedes with a 3" lift (and modified bump stops) and doesn't have any trouble. There are photos on here of his truck with them on.

Cheers,
Mark

Yep, check my member thread.


There are details of what is required in there.


... oh, and SEARCH NOOB!

spoke to a guy the other day with a 4" lift and Q78's on a GU wagon.

He said he had installed radius arm spacers and rear bump stop extensions.

I did do a search you tool & nothing came up that was of any help to me. I think the 36's look like floaties . You need atleast a 4' lift to run 36's. I'm looking at getting the 35x10.5 which have a much smaller diameter than the 36's. I'm running 285 75 16 MTR's at the moment & never seem to rub (not standard wheels, different offset). Now I'm wishing I spent the extra $ & went the 4' lift .

Bug if going for the 35's get the 35x11.50R15or16.
These measure abit wider and have slightly wider lug pattern. 10.5 where desigen for rangies that break stuff.
They are also a slightly larger dia (35 and abit).

Turps
Just wish they made a 35x11.50R17.

Oooook, so what you're saying is that looks are more important to you than a higher clearance tyre and lower centre of gravity?

No, what I'm saying is 36's look too big on a 3' lift (too me anyway) & I wouldn't bother putting them on mine unless I had atleast a 4' lift ( which would give you more ground clearance for better departure angles & keep those sills clear from damage too):roll: . I would imagine they'd be rubbing like crazy at full flex (if it would fully flex before hitting up under the guards/tray) which would be less likely if you had a 4' lift, but I don't so that is just my opinion . Either way, they still look like balloons & 35's would have probably done just fine (especially if you're worried about the whole centre of gravity thing ) . Opinions are like arseholes, everyone's got one, that is mine . Thanx for your help anyway .

No you dont.
2-3inch. Q78's on shitbox 3.0 GU. No rubbing.
