teabag Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Ok if you are running on 8J rims D2, but to wide for the D1's 7J rims, you will have to adjust the steering stops, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantic Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I run 31 x 10.5 R15 BFG AT's on 8j rims. Needs camel cutting slightly, but lockstops and turning circle are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasticbadger Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Originally I ran 265x75x16 on 7J Modulars. Suspension had a 2" lift and no restriction to up travel (i.e. no extended bump stops). To get them to clear I trimmed a lot of body work and used cut down defender arches to cover the wider, more off set wheels. Later I ran 37"x12.5"x16 tyres on custom 10" wide wheels. That needed a 4" lift, 2" body lift and +2" bump stops and still rubbed in a few places on full up travel. I think the 265s would be the biggest you can sensibly run (or any other 32" diameter size) without having to body lift or fit extended bump stops. 235x85x16s fit with less trimming due to the narrower width.
