NorCal88 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'm happy with my adventuro M/T's, I beat em on rocks and branches. Still lookin good minus some chunking from the rocks. I thought they would be wearing quicker because of the cheap price but they still look new after 7k miles. $505 mounted and balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbley11 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 from the pictures you can kinda see what the t-bars raised it by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifun Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 Bubbly11 what tire sizes are you running. Also if you adjust the Torsion bars do you have to re- aling the car afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbley11 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Those tires right there are 31-10.5r15's wild cat a/t2's. You probably will need to but when I did mine, I had it like that for 3 months before I got my new tires. You will most likely need to have the realigned.

enkrypt3d Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Did you reindex or just crank them up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbley11 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I reindexed it, pretty easy to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkrypt3d Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Just called america's tire and they said they wont mount them on my truck b/c they are too big...... the BFG KM2's in 31x10.5x15's?????? do I need a lift to get these mounted or are my wheels to narrow or something?

Trogdor636 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 If you have the stock chromies they are 15x6 and they probably won't mount them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkrypt3d Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Im guessing its bc the wheels are too narrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelord Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 A lot of places now wont mount up a non-stock tire size by their system. So, if their system says 265/70R15. Even though a 31x10.5x15 is practically the same. They will say no. Might have to resort to putting it up on jack stands. Taking all 4 off and bringing them there by themselves to get them to mount em. Or find a smaller Mom n Pop store. They usually don't care.

adamzan Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Tell them it was a stock size option. Lie and tell them you have an SE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor636 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Most places will mount a different size tire, they make you sign a waiver. When it comes to rim width, the bigger companies will not mount a tire if it needs a certain width rim.<br /> Edited April 20, 2013 by Trogdor636 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkrypt3d Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Should I get new torsion bars like these: http://www.calmini.com/detail.php?b=1&m=3&t=2&p=626&n= or reindex? I'm looking for better ride quality........ and to make more room in the front for bigger tires! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for better ride quality........ and to make more room in the front for bigger tires! 4-5 cranks will typicaly get you where you wanna be. If it sags back down then get new torsion bars or re index. You want at least 1/2-3/4 inches between the upper bump stops though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbley11 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Just saw this, umm dunno bout the width. Bought the car used, raised it, put on some bigger tires, all I can say is that they are 15in rims. I have no information on them at all.

brix542 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 They look like the 15x8s I got on my pathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkrypt3d Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 So do you guys think that fitting those 31's on the OEM Chrome rims wont' be an issue? 15x6 seem realllly narrow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbley11 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 It should be fine, I think those have the right amount of back spacing. The tires will just pop out a bit more, but I would be careful of the seating and maybe the side walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read a few posts up you'll see my answer. Where I live, the bigger tire shops (and a few of the smaller mom n pop type) will not mount a tire on a rim smaller than the tire recommends. Most (if not all) 31x10.50x15 require a 7 inch wide wheel. They are liable if they mount that tire on your 6 inch wide wheel and then you have a blowout, so they simply won't do it. I'm sure I could find somebody to do it, but I would get a slightly smaller tire, or a wider rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkrypt3d Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I guess I'll have to go with 235/75/15's then... will it look silly with tires that skinny with such an agressive tread design? haha thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 If you want bigger tires, get some other rims. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
