Post by saturdaynightbeaver » Tue Oct 14, 2008 9:12 pm

Anyone have any experience with these?
I'm thinking of these in 31x10.5 R15 - £72.50 delivered! ;D

Also what sort of lift am i looking at to accomodate these?
Already have a 2" shackle lift....

i've never had any experiance with them matey but they look like a pretty good tread pattern for the muddy stuff, where are you getting them from as thats a pretty good price as they are not remoulds!

also in my opinion you should ditch the lift shackles as they reduce your approach angle and kill springs, trust me you'll get stuck less without them! however you should be able to squeeze some 31s on with 2/3" of lift. a cheap way to get a bit of extra space under the arches is to go for a body lift.

Cheers for your replies - i've decided to go for some Recip Trials 30x9.5 and some add-a-leaf springs - i would ideally like some heavy duty lifter springs, but thought i would run the current springs with the lifter shackles until they die! Then i'll think about fiddling a bit more...
Happy days!
