85 drover 65mm lift, just picked up some 235/76/15 bighorns, I was wondering if there was any problems with fitting Them on the stock 5.5" rim or should I just get some 15x7" Sunnys?? |

Thats pretty much the widest tyre you can safely fit to the stock rims. You'll be fine with that setup, but if some 15x7's come along at a good price in the future jump on them. |

31zook has been running those tyres on the stock rims without an issue that I've seen. |

I have 235 bighorns, but I got told it was illegal to have them on 5.5" rims, so I bought 15x7 s |

I've got those tyres on stock rims on stock suspension. The shop whinged a bit but I talked them into it. |

It's not the Melon, what car were they run on ? and any scrubbage ? I'm on the hunt for a set of stock rims, the one with round holes. I'm going to powdercoat and fit some 235/75's on to a 91 tintop. I'm on the gold coast, any one have some GC stock rims they want to part with ? |

On the spare.. A '91 WT HT. 
Had a little bit of scrubbing on the front inner guards and rear of the front bar + wings. 15 minutes work with an angle grinder and it fixed it. Can't see the chopping unless you really look. Took ~10-15mm off in a couple of places. If the springs weren't sagged, I don't think any chopping would have been needed. |
