| Post subject: | Some questions about my 95 Suzuki Vitara! |
Hi guy's I'm new to the forum.. I've just bought a 95 Vitara.. It has four Mickey Thompson 31x10 50r 15lt tyres on it and I'm after buying a 5th one for my spare, what messing will I have to do to get it to fit on the standard spare wheel rack? Also I like the look of the Shrockworks front bar but as far as I know they don't do these anymore, is the closet looking one to it the ARB (also though I'm not too sure am I keen on them! |

I'd suggest both answers lie in getting a welder and doing a bit of fabrication.... I'm not sure how much extra height would be required in the wheel carrier for a 31" tyre to clear the rear bumper; there's about an inch of space between the 235/70/R15 on an 15x8 rim (don't ask) and the bumper itself, so I'd be figuring at least 2-3" higher. It wouldn't be hard to make an adapter from a bit of 6mm plate and welded on 3 bolts with the correct PCD positions. The adapter itself could bolt on the existing 3 wheel bolts, or you could just weld it on. All that said... I'd be a little worried about the rear door's ability to handle the extra weight though. Personally I was counting on fitting up a swinging rear wheel carrier to take the spare when I move up to bigger tyres. As for the front bar, so long as your Zook doesn't have airbags, anything can be fabricated up to suit. Cheers, Ben. |
