Post by minibreaker » Sun Nov 10, 2013 4:42 pm

i am going to run 30 9.50s 15 on the front but i cannot seem to find another two tires new for a decent price so i am going to run 31s on the rear. can anyone see any issues with this setup,i am worried about wind up or anything else that will cause a issue

Big time transmission wind up.

Half shafts, UJs, diffs all at risk unless driven on anything but slippy surfaces.

Only time it would be remotely ok is in 2wd with FWH unlocked.

Worth the extra time searching dude...and the extra cash if you have to. Defo not a good plan to run different sizes front to rear

Good luck..!!..

It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
