hi all

just need to know breifly will 30x9 fit on standard 93 vitara rims ?

cheersss

[twitchy]

7" rim would be the best fit but it will fit on a 6" but will be a tad baggy..... so to speak.

[tsock0]

what u mean by baggy?

[Shansh]

like mc hammer pants..............

[SierraDan]

6" would be fine in my opinion. 235's are run fine on 5.5" rims. My rule is to have more than 2" tyre width to rim to avoid breaking beads and filling beads with dirt/rocks at low pressure.

Too much tyre on too narrow a rim makes for roll under cornering and more chance of burping/loosing a bead when off road.

9.5=6" rim
10.5=7" rim
12.5=8" rim

Standard vit rims are only 5.5 wide

[tsock0]

alrighty then so is a standard vitara rim 5.5 inch or 6??

ill double check tomorrow what mine r exactly

[Gwagensteve]

5.5 for 1.6 vitaras.

[tsock0]

how wil my 30x 9.5 go on these or should i look for some wider rims

[atari4x4]

will be fine... people run a 235/75r15 on the stock rims & that's basically 9.5" wide

I wouldn't say they will be FINE.

Its not ideal, but they will fit.

[banga]

alot of tyre shops wont fit them on there for you i had 235's fitted to stock rims never had issues with them except got to stay off full lock rubs on chassis (you could just adjust your steering stops) got them on 7" rims now they look heaps better.

[tsock0]

Hmmmm anyone got some cheapish 7 inch rims for sale?

C how i go i just bought these 3ox9 maxxis at from ebay $99 so for that price its worth changing them first i think

I ran 235s on standard rims for years. Never a problem running 8psi, I drove all the hardest lines an tracks the hunter valley had to offer. I'm going to take the 15x8s off my current 235s and fit up standard rims. Cause if a drive in dust it gets in my beads

Yep



Not by choice, it's how I bought em. Looks like 31s on 8s I rekon.

[Fatzook]

Yeah doesn't look that bad.

[tsock0]

nice thanks for the replies and input
ima gunna jst try them on the stocks first whilst lookin for some wider rims,
by the way do old ford rims like falcon fit the vitara?

[atari4x4]

nah old ford rims wont fit. you're after a wheel with a PCD 5/139.7mm or 5/5.5" eg F100 & early jeeps
