Whats is the largest tyre size some one has put on a stock RR
And what is the largest tyre size put on a stock rr with 2" suspension lift


I got the BF Muds 265/75R16's to be fitted today but my springs never arrived......................shit hey they might have to wait abit.

Any response will be useful... thank you

Anthony

To fit larger than 265/75/16 you will have to chop the guards and fit body lift.

The 265/75/16's will struggle to fit and will hit when fully stuffed.

thanks matey I am just gonna wait till all the springs and suspension stuff goes in then drop in and get the tyres fitted

To fit 265/75's easily, I would also look at a body lift for peace of mind. You will get them on, but like Micheal said,myou will still have guard rub problems.

I run 245/75R16 BFG all-terrains with a 2 inch King spring lift and a 25mm body lift, even on full upwards travel they occasionally hit up front on the guards. This hasn't stop me from fitting 235/8516 Goodyear wrangler MT/R's on the next tyre change (real soon!!) regardless of what the tyre blokes say!!

Anyway, have fun.

If it ain't broke, leave the bastard alone!!

For some reason I just dont like the idea of a body lift....... not real sure why but i would rather cut the guard and do other mods.

But hey I am probably the small majority of people that dont do them.

I've got 235/85/15 MTRs on the Disco, 2" spring lift. Standard bump stops doesn't touch anywhere after the rear guards were trimmed.

Discos need the corner of the rear guard taken off, I had a panelbeater just follow the Rangie profile.

I have 33" MTR's on my 76 2 door with an Old Man Emu 2" spring lift, I had to cut the front and back of the front guards and the front of the back guards and they still just touch the top of both on full up-travel.

I have had 36 Swampers on my 85 4 door

Thinking of puttin 33's on my 2 door. Have 31's that dont hit anywhere with zero offset rims and outer guard cut out. Thinking of spacing the bumpstops down an inch for the mean time instead of mucking around with a body lift. Any ideas? I know I will lose an inch of wheel travel but thats just bad luck!

No spring lift will stop tyer rub unless the prings are so long they bind up or the spring is rock hard both ways are unfeasable the only ways to stop tyer rub are:

1- body lift cheap and easy

2- cut gards out and by flairs

3- possible with skinner larger tyers that wheels spacers will help

4- Lower your bump stops :<

Putting bigger springs dose have marginal effect on tyer scub if you run the write rate springs, if your spring is to hard you might as well by a different 4x4 because articulation is about all the rangie has going for it and if you remove that it really is not much good any more. That is why leaf spring toyotas where made.
