Tyres

Just acquired a VERY cheap set of good off road tyres...

Now... the trouble is... they are 265/75 x 16's which is Landrover sizes... (31/32 inch i'm guessing)

But the cogs have been turning :hahaha:

Obviously I'd need wider rims (9/10 inches?) to fit these to a Samurai but what about clearance for turning/arches etc?

Body has a 2 inch lift but otherwise its fairly standard..

Forget it and go back to sleep? :hahaha:

Id it on the road? Get 90 steels, drill out the center riverts, and weld standard steel sj rim centers in!
