rzn185 tyres?

Post by LOWDWN »

itl soon be time for new tyres

i have a lil buckle in alloy rim so looking into rims

but i think i have to run 16s because of 4 pot fron brakes? can anyone verify?

also whats a good mud/road tyre i dont reele go off road but like the odd occasion along with taking the bike were i cnt be f#@kt walking

is it tru that mud tyres wear faster than road tyres

and what size with a 185 fit under the arches with a 2'' lift kit

HI, yes you need 16 inch rims.

With a 2 inch body lift and 2 inch suspension lift, 285/75x16's fit which are slighlty taller than a 33.
He had 265/75x16 before the body lift went in. These are on Landcruiser/beam axle hilux offset rims.

A friend is mid way through doing the Solid axle swap on it at the moment. Quite the exercise. Would have to be one of the most modified in the country i'd say.
SWB V6 Paj with one or two mods ;)
