Another tyre size question please

[Gonzo12c]

Hi folks I've just done a search and can't find the exact answer so if somebody could answer for me quickly please.

My surf is raised 2 inches on the body and I have 10" wide wheels

What is the biggest tyres I can go on these without the need for anymore raise

Thanks

do another 2inch and you will be able to fit something like this

All depends on what off-set the wheels have.

right again!

[Gonzo12c]

Ah I'll check tomorrow and report back

[Gonzo12c]

I've just had a look for offsets and I can't see any stamps on the outside or stickers on the inside.

Attached is pics though of how we are looking at the moment

[budweiser]

if you take one wheel of the truck, normally you will see the offset size stamped on it

[BUSHWHACKER]

Those are not 10" wide wheels most likely 8".

[Gonzo12c]

Oh I will double check but when I got them I ran a tape measure across them and it read 10

The rim width is measured in the section the tyre sits in. If you measured the from the back of the wheel to the outside edge and got 10", you need to subtract approx 2" to give the true width measurement.

Looks like 31x10.5s on 7" (maybe 8") rims.

Yep rim seat to seat I will get the spare off and check again though. What height of tyre can fit in a 2 inch lift then on 15" rim is it 31 or 33?

[BUSHWHACKER]

As you only have 2" of lift, you could probably get away with 33/10.5/15 tyres.
With 4" total lift you could use the usual 33/12.5/15 tyres.

Ok i may be getting confused here but is 33 the diameter and 12.5 the width of the tyre? So for a 10" rim 10.5 and 12.5 would fit. But with 2" lift i can go to 33 and 4" lift i can go to 35?

At current the tyres on are 265/70/15

You don't have 10" wide wheels....that we are all pretty sure of!
Most likely somewhere between 7 and 8"
33" is the diameter ans 12.5 the OVERALL width of the tyre, not the tread width.
on your (lets call them 8") wheels, 31's or 32" x 10.50 or 11.50 will fit, but that's it, unless you like driving mushy mush mush.

If they actually are deep dished 10" wheels, with a total of 4" lift, you can fit 33x12.50's or with an extra inch or two, and some fettling with the front arches 35's will fit.
