stokie Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 You can fit 235 x 85 x 16 or 265 x 70 x 16 which have the same rolling circumference . They are fine with a 2 inch lift but you still need to trim the arches you need to cut the back of the rear arch and the front bottom section of the front bumper . If you are unsure google disco camel cut and there are pictures . Any larger than that and you need a 4 inch lift kit and that opens up a whole can of worms such as camber correction arms and large angle prop shafts and dislocation cones . To be honest you don't need to fit any other size of tyre . I run 235x75x16 mud terrains on mine and I have never been stuck .I use it as my offroader and greenlane truck aswell .
