3'' lift and 235-75-15 or 30-9,5-15 tyres was created by Delvederis
Hello,

i have a question to make.

How can you fit a 235/75/15 or a 30/9.5/15 tyre with a 3'' lift?

To fit in these two tyre sizes to my car i had to make a lift of 4,5''.

Also in order to avoid front tyres trimming the bumper fitted bigger bump stops.

So the 30-9.5-15 will fit a 3" without body lift? B)

If that's right then it's perfect "for now ;)"

I too have 30x9.50x15 tyres - Kumho KL71 - and they fit ok with a 3" lift. I've got a KAP front winch bumper which allows plenty of clearance - not sure about a std. bumper. The tyres very occassionally touch on extreme articulation but hasn't been a problem so far. My tyres are on 8 spokes so plenty of offset.

Does anyone knows if the 225/75/16 bf muds are smaller than

the 205/80/16 malatesta kaiman?

I want to made an exchange and give the kaiman to take the bfs.

At the moment i have sj410 transfer but i hope until easter to have fitted the

4.16 gears.

Can 410 and 4.16 work with them? (bfs mud)

The widths make a difference as to how much they'll catch too though!

Yes they will, but I have 32mm spacers so it should be alright

anyone with 31" and no body lift ??? This would be the 31/10.5/15

I don't really want to be fitting body lifts at least for now so just wondering if this would fit. I was going for the safe approach and fit 30/9.5/15

thanks ;)

i dont think you will get 31x10.5x15 on with no body lift but depends on what susp lift you doing maybe with a 4.5" lift it might be possable
