93 Hilux Surf - How Big Can The Wheels Be??

Post by Sir Plug »

Hi, I have a 93 Surf, with a 2" Old Man Emu suspension lift (Torsion front, spring rear). Question is, how big can the wheels be? 31's look OK but can I squeeze in a 33? If not, what about 265/75 x 16? I'm looking to buy some Mickey Thompson alloys and tyres, so can go for either 15" or 16" wheels and get rubber to suit.....any ideas....

You will be able to squeeze in 33 ok.... but you might get a little rubbing on full lock or articulation.
As you have a surf if you go for after market wheels be very careful you get the right ones.You need a different backspace to a hilux with solid front axle to clear the front brake calipers.
