Lifted Surf - How high ?
« on: June 23, 2007, 22:41:11 »
I have bought a 91 Surf yesterday

I am going to buy a new set of tyres for it but don't know what the biggest size I can fit.

It has been lifted but don't know how much.

How can I find out how much it has been lifted?

it currently has 265/75/16 MTs on it

Can anyone help Please

http://www.hiluxsurf.co.uk....... need more info on how it's been lifted but a standard will take 31x10.5x 15 and you will need a 4 inch lift to do 33 x12.5x 15

They must rub off road? Looks good, but the arches look so tight

Check and see if theres been a body lift done. You can see the white blocks in this pic of mine( +2").  So check the body mounts and see if you can spy somethin similar. Suspension lift can vary as well. Stick a picture on and we'll all have a guess :?

the easiest way to tell is to look at the gap on the chassis and the body over the rear wheel.on a standard surf there should be little or no gap.heres mine with 33x12.5x15 and five inch suspension lift and three inch body lift
