Grand Vitara tyres
« on: September 25, 2007, 10:51:14 »
Can someone please advise what the largest size tyres can be fitted to an '03 Grand Vitara without any lift?

A work mate has just bought one and wants to put more agressive tyres on it and maybe go up a size from the 215/65 16 that are cureently fitted.

It's got steel wheels if that make any difference.

TIA

Interesting, especially with regard to your Don't Cut The Chassis warning.

How do all the bobbed/shortened Landies/RRC's/Discoverys get by then???

Something i wondered too?

Do you need to re register it?

What happens if you insure it all declared, surelly if your insurance company is aware you are not breaking any laws....
