Tire Question

[brix542]

Hey ive been looking for some new tires cause mine are almost bald. One of my friends said he'd sell me his bfg mud terrian t/a's for $130 a tire. He said they were 31x14.50x15 and they look like they have 3/4 tread left. Would these fit a 94 pathy if i had a 3 in body lift? What size rim would be good for these and how much would they be ea? Thanks

14.50? I wouldn't go that wide unless you have upgraded steering components, or SAS.

Id say 13.5 absolute max with a 3" suspension lift, a "3 inch body lift and proper wheel size with the correct Backspacing/offset. 88pathoffroad had them when he picked up his interco LTB's and he said they would JUST stuff in the fenders. Mind you he also had a bomber steering set up so I wouldnt touch that option until you get your steering sorted out.

BF Goodrich does not make a 14.50" tire in a 31", you would have to go up to their 36,39.40 or 42" tires to get a 14.50"

That size doesn't sound right...

I'm not sure bout the size. Like i said thats what he told me. Im going to look at them today and find out the real size.

They are probably just 31x10.50 as that is the most common. Which would fit.

[brix542]

They are a 325/60r15 which converts to a 30.4x12.8x15. He said 13 to begin with then change to a 14.5 so must have just got confused. Would they fit stock or how much lift would i need?

[GrimGreg]

They should fit at stock height, but might rub the frame or the rear edge of the front fender when turning depending on the wheel used.

Im planning on using crager black bullet holes 15x10 6 on 5.5 and 4" backspacing for $60 ea from summit.
