Sorry guys i stopped getting notifications on this thread. Thanks for the pics and info. I especially like the one where you compared your spring under rig to the spring over. Both on 31's, but yours is still spring under.. I really like that.

7.5" off a tape measure is only 190mm, would a 235 be safe to run on 4.5'' rims?


Just measured them and the tread is only 7"/180 wide. Plus I've been telling everyone they are 32s (got that from measuring a fully inflated spare) but on the car they are closer to 31 than 32 :oops: .

Minimum recommended rim for 7.50s and 235s is generally 6" but I've also seen a 5.5" minimum listed for 7.50s. When I bought the tyres the shop didn't want to fit them to 7" rims but was OK with 4.5s. They've now been on 6 trips without any problems.

I'm running 35's Silverstone extreme's under mine.
It has a 2 inch body lift with a Calmini 5 inch kit, 3 inch springs, 2 inch modified shackle mounts.
Tyres just rub on the rear of front guards, but not on the guard just plastic trim.
Will be getting bigger lift later, just spending coin on the Stockman at the moment.
Just look at avatar that's them.

You could always lower it about 6 inches and cut the guards. :wink:

Hehe. Typing on an iPad gives me the poos, although I can sit on the couch and watch the Graham Norton show and post on auszookers, so it's a win.

Funny though, on Thursday's at work a Turkish guy does souvlaki orders and he writes my makes as "stev"
