Re: What Size Tyres Can I Get Away With
I want 2 sets of wheels, on road & off road.......currently I have 225/75 15's on 7j rims so I want to know if I could put these tyres on the 5.5j's and then put a set of 31/10'50's on the 7j's (I'm getting confused myself now haha)

According to this http://forum.suzukiclubuk.co.uk/vi ... f=14&t=226
the 5.5" rims are still a bit narrow.

If you get desperate i have some 7j steels and 8j (i think) alloys. The alloys are quite deep and could probably do with longer studs.

Re: What Size Tyres Can I Get Away With
Have I seen those before? where?.........my heads in a nasty dark & smelly place atm ahaha and I don't know what's going on, I may have found a set of 15 x 8j's brand new for £120, I say may because the guy said they were 8j but I want it confirmed in triplicate 1st!
