Hi MigCooper

I ordered already steel wheels with -30 offset. In that case I believe, that if you fit your 30" with 32mm spacers on original wheels, than may be I will be able to fix 235/75/R15.
Did you try already your monster.
How is power performance? Do you will some lack of power?

Cheers

You are going to have BIG scrubbing issues with ANY size tyre that you choose cus of the huge off set.

Migcooper: I think you should consider buying some new wider rims for those 30"sx9.5 here in AUS it it illegal to run anything bigger than a 215's on a 5.5" wide rim. You will also get more life out of your tyres, say with a 15x7" rim.

The rims are with following specifications:
7" x 15" 5x139.7x 110 ET -30

So in that case is it possible to avoid wheel spacers?

Yes i run 15x7's -13 and even that feels very stable, but you are going to need to trim your guards due to the size of your off set...

31"can be fitted there or not?

Thank you
