[To: pajerokid & otep] Fitting bigger tires on a Pajero

[CZintrclr]

tanong ko lang kung kakasya ba sa pajero natin ang 285/75 16" tires? hindi ba sasabit sa wheelwell? thanks.

[pajerokid]

Hmmmm... palagay ko kasya.

Sabi ni Otep, yung sa classmate niya nagkasya 12" wide tires.... 285s work out to -11.5"s

[Ungas]

pajerokid::: Di ba yan din size ng gulong mo?

[CZintrclr]

oki thanks pk. o nga pala, yung harap kasi ng ride ko medyo mababa, yung clearance ng tire sa fenderflares konti lang (subsob) kailangan ko pa ba pa-adjust torsion bar or walang kinalaman ito sa sabit ng 285/75 16?

[ARB]

the height would be 33" that would pose a problem. the width is ok pa the problem would be the height.

[CZintrclr]

sorry pero baka naguluhan ako, I have to confirm ulit yung tire size na sinabi sa akin, di ko sure kung 275/85 or 285/75.
Basta General ang tire eh.

[ARB]

pag 275/85 magiging 34".

[Ungas]

Bihira ang 85 ratio sa gulong, malamang 285/75 nga yan.

[CZintrclr]

thanks for reply everyone. may bagong labas ang bridgestone ngayon na a/t, saan kaya ang cheapest place to buy aside Banawe? or sir Ungas baka may kakilala ka?

[OTEP]

33" tires will fit with some adjustments. If you are on a budget, just put some rubber coil spring spacers in the rear. They cost around $12.00 ea. in Canada pero mas mura dito sa atin. I have a photo in my home computer. Then just crank the torsion bars. Pasok 'yan.

PK,

32X12.5 Dunlop Grandtrek M/T's ang gamit ng classmate ko sa blister-fender niya.

[kimpOy]

CZ, yan ba yung A/T REVO

generally mas mura sa blumentritt sa tires

[pajerokid]

Otep, ahhh now i remember

CZIntercooler, now im sure it'll fit.

UNgas, im not sure kung 275/70-16 or 285/70-16 yung nasa akin hehe... growing old.

[pajerokid]

CZ,

btw, i had my 16"s installed nung "lowered" pa yung front ko dati... no clearance problems...

I really have serious doubts about 275/70-16s working out as 32's, 33's or 34's when converted to the old style of measuring tires.

I measured them with a medida and they didnt even reach 31"!!!!


I posted a similar thread dati with some conversion computation done. How i wish we had the search engine up and running...

[Ungas]

Baka iba yung inch measurement ng medida compared to a reel metal tape measure. :bwahaha: (joke joke!)

Naalala ko eto yung computations ni pajerokid dati. Does 141 inch tire ring a bell?

Teka hahanpin ko muna yung ibang threads... :D

[Ungas]

Eto yung isang nakalap kong speedometer discrepancy computation.

[pajerokid]

Ahhhh! In Ungas we TRUST! :cool:

[jackaroo]

Isn't stock a 265/70R16 which works out to a 31x10.5 tire size? A 285/75R16 is about a 33x11.5 size- think that's too big on a stock suspension?

[pajerokid]

Ungas, go ahead.... ungkatin yung 141inch tires, why dont you! hehehe

Pero BTTT, promise pare, nasa 31" lang ang sukat.... 36PSI pa yon ha! Ang alam ko rin that tire size should measure to at least a 32"

[Ungas]

For a stock suspension setting on a Pajero, a 32x11.5 tire with 0 (zero) offset should sound safe enough, provided that the mags have max 8 inch width.

Ample 1-2 inch lift could fit the next size bigger 33x12.5 tires still max width of the mags or wheels should not be greater than 8; if you plan to maximize the full suspension play. Street version can fit a 15x10 or 16x10 mags.

But an LC80 and a GU Patrol will have no problems with wider mags with stock suspension, thanks to their bigger wheel well design.

[pajerokid]

I had 32x11.5's on mine before on stock 7" mags. Remember nung nag-oproad tayo sa Lahar?
