You can put any 15 inch 4x4 tyre on the rim :thumbs

But what do you want to use it for i.e. everyday / off road :nenau

 

[JimmyJaffa]

Everyday use and some off road and of course looks

Ya can go upto 30x950R15 with no mods

31x10.50 or 11.50 R15 with minor trimming to the front arch only

32x11.50R15 as above

33x10.50 or 12.50 R15 with major trimming to the front arch's & may get rubbing on the inner rear

35x12.50R15 with major cutting to front & rear

Once ya over 30" to avoid trimming / cutting you can body lift but the higher you go the more mods to pipe work etc

what i'm really after is a 2" spring/bar lift and i want wide tyres out to the arches.

Hi,

I put a set of four 31x10.5x15 General grabber at2 on my 1997 LWB Terrano in mid December 2009.
Had to trim a small bit off the mud flaps on the front only as they rubbed slightly on lock.
I also wound the front torsion bars up to achieve the desired stance, I had to remove a shim from the inside of the front top wishbone on both sides to bring the camber back.
Certainly improved the on and off road capabilitys, much smoother ride now.
I would highly recommend these.

Here are some pics of the tyres fitted.

Those tyres are the nuts :thumbs had a set the same size :thumbs

The only other A/T tyre I'd recommend would be RUNWAY ENDUROS :thumbs
