2006 Rally Course Champion: Expedition Trophy
Ok folks, what is your opinion, can I go 235/85/16s on my Zuk.
Here is a shot with 245/75/16s ... 1.5 inches from tire to rock slider in back, 2-inches in front. Tires are Goodyear MTRs worn about 70 to 80 percent.
Specs for both sizes are as follows: 245/75/16 is 30.7 inches tall. 235/85/16 is 31.9 inches tall. So, 1.2 inches difference, basically half an inch clearance to worry about, but half an inch narrower so what little rubbing I have currently will go away. And on my little guy, .6 inches helps offroad ..
I think I'd be fine, but want to see what others think in case I'm overlooking something. I'll get a test fit to be sure ...
