samurai width

Post by ScottieJ » Tue Oct 18, 2011 12:18 pm

Can a few people please measure the width of their samurais from the outer tyre wall to the outer tyre wall.

I need to move my sj this weekend but with the wide wheels I'm 5" too wide for the trailer.

I know where there are some wheels I can borrow but just want to make sure that it will fit with some stock wheels.

Thanks Guys

bugger :lol: I need to get it down to 61" so 5'1"

with your wheels and no spacers dan it would still be 5'1.5"
