I've not got them yet as I've had no reply to the Email I sent them. Going for the 32" now rather than the 33"

If you get two tyres for the rear, you'll have no problems/conflicts with the fronts.

sweet, cheers bushwacker! 32" sound interesting!!!

[drunkmonkeyboy]

can anyone tell me if i can run 32" on the rear and keep my 31" on the front till i can get them replaced?

Thanks

i dont think so as they will run at differant speeds

[dirtydog]

surely that is ok but you will no be able to use 4wd!

[stormforce]

i am probably wrong but i always thought you couldnt run 2 differant sizes

Where are the brain boxes too so they can answer this correctly. Vince Tony.....

Its fine, untill you select 4wd, then....'Boooooom!'.

lol I read loads but not sure how much I take in! Im also assuming that you knew I was talking about the same tyres being on the same axle i.e. same size on each rear and same size on each front as opposed to each side

[drunkmonkeyboy]

well that answers that then which is a good answer really cos i noticed that the 33" were the same price as the 32"'s so i might just have to aduse the credit card once again and get all four 33"

Now i have some more questions for debate sorry. apart from the 4" lift i have is there any other mods i will have to do to run these? i am sure i saw somewere about having to get the gearing changed or something????? also to anyone who runs 33" on full lock do they catch or did you have to mod the fronts to fit!

sorry about all the questions i am on nights again and have 7 nights to think about and plan fun truck toys! thanks in advance for any info and help and thanks for the advice allready given

The lovelyboyo had 33" tyres on his 2.4 at salisbury last week and he said there is a lot of power loss with running 33's on the road.if you can put up with the power loss then go for it.you may have to mod the front slighly in order to be able to put on full lock unless you can cope with shunting to/fro to turn around but i think it depends on the offset of the wheels but someone else can explain about that better

You'll need some 10" wide rims as well.

Thanks for your replys thinking long and hard about what i want to do next! power loss and a 2.4 dont really go well. might get the intercooler fitted first!

I have found something that might interest you guys whislt looking at some very nice bfgoodrich mud terrains i noticed their off-road tyre size guide if you fill in the gaps then it tells you all sorts of interesting info!! hope someone here finds it usefull i thought it was cool!

Copycat! You've seen mine haven't you?

Wish I'd gone for 33s now though. The price difference is nowt compared to the 265/75-16s I got. Mind you, not a lot available in 33" for the 16" wheel.
