What Size?

[Rasbo]

Looking for some new boots for my 90 with a 3" lift, think 33s would prob be best but no idea what that is in the xxx/xxR16 format and also what width is best?  Any one no where i can get some remoulds for a descent price as on a small budget :(

cheers and

A mixed bag of size converters:

Think about offset as well, you'll need to balance usable steering lock versus the need for larger arches.

No problemo

I think 33" 's will be a bit small looking with a 3" lift though  :twisted:... go the whole hog 35x12.5's  :lol: but then you'll need spacers and bigger arches and ...

 :drool: want 35s but will have to wait till i graduate before i can afford to do the whole shabang :'(

will have to make do with 33s if i can ever find some on my budget

Sounds like someones already used up most of their loan and overdraft

285/75R16 and 255/85R16 are the more common metric sizes for 33" tyres

[Rasbo]

yep, and thats all down to my rent :(

thanks for those sizes chris

can 33"s fit under it without a lift ??

[Rasbo]

believe so, might catch a wheel arch tho as you need a decent offset for the steering
