tire and wheel size help for zuk with 5" SPOA lift
« on: April 26, 2007, 05:22:02 PM »
I am putting a 5" SPOA lift on my 88' zuk and i need help figuring out what size wheels and tires to put on it.  My main use of the zuk is getting through the mud at my hunting ranch in South Texas.  I want something with a little width and heighth but not too extreme.  I also don't want to spend a fortune.  Any help on sizing and a place to get a good deal possibly on used tires would be greatly appreciated.  thanks

if you are just going spring over without lifted shackles and what not... I would say a 31x10.50 on 15x8 with 3.75 backspacing!!! I ran that set up for awhile and it was great!!!

If he runs any bigger without limiting up travel he would rub really bad. 31 is all I would do... Maybe a 32 if I was running spoa with 2" lift shackles....
