Tyre Size

Post by The Twig »

Hi all.
I have a 2004 legend 35 with the std mags and tyres.
If correct 245x75x15.
My question is what mag and wheel size could I go to comfortably without any modifications and obviously no rubbing.
Thanx

you can keep the rim, i can easily say the 31x10,5x15 fits no prblem, en gives a substantial bit of lift from ground.

Ive got the 31x10,5x15 fitted on the 2000 Hilux DC, Ive been told it is as big as you can go without mods. It does touch a little front left when doing a full turn, cant remember when turning to which side, ill check and come back to you.

There is a knob on the right side mud flap on the inside. The 31 inch touches that knob sometimes. You can easily just cut it off.
31" no problem, 32 " you will have to modify.

Awesome thank you for the efforts guys.

As a side note is it possible to put on a larger mag than the 15inch.

Hi guys.
Thoughts on actually going to a narrower tyre format
Could one do a 205 wide tyre or is that going to narrow.
