You will not only lose power, your fuel consumption will also increase...

Re: 32" tyres on a Vigo
Ive got 265/70R17s on a 2014 vigo. According to google tire size convertor its a 31.6x10.4R17. So close to 32s.
Ive only fitted strut spacers and did minimal trimming on the inside of the front bumper to avoid rubbing. Some people also remove the front mudflaps.
But a good alighnment will sort out most of the issues if you got spacers installed

Re: 32" tyres on a Vigo
Vian, i'm quite surprised you had to put in spacers or do any mods. Is that not the standard size for the later model vigo?
I know the earlier vigos came standard with 15s / 16s. I've got same tyres on as you but can't say i noticed any scrapping... maybe i did not go offroad enough![Mock :mocking:](./images/smilies/mocking.gif)

Re: 32" tyres on a Vigo
@dalkill
The standard tire size for the 2012-2015 hiluxes (facelift) was 265/65R17, i went one size larger just to gain the extra clearance, added bonus is that now my speedo is 100% accurate
I would say you need spacers to fit them, as with some strut compression on the front while turning i still get a bit of rubbing. Nothing major, but you know of it.

Re: 32" tyres on a Vigo
Hi George, from a buddy's vigo, 32 x 11.5 x 15's did scrape, 265 x 75 x 16 did not scrape (also 32" in diameter but narrower)
these are without a lift, the 265 x 75 x 16 looked very nice with a black steel wheel, from his feedback he didn't really experience any significant fuel increase or power loss.

Re: 32" tyres on a Vigo
Am I correct that smaller that 32" size tyres will fit the Vigo SRX in my case) without any modifications?
I am considering 245/75 R16 but might have to get wider rims being that the steel rims are 6J's
