largest tires on stock 98 sidekick sport
« on: November 20, 2007, 10:13:28 AM »
i will need new tires soon and was wondering what the largest tires i can install on a stock 98 sidekick sport with the stock wheels. Also will going to a larger tire cause damage to other parts over time?

thanks

I have 225/70R16s, one size larger than stock, on mine.  They rub the frame on the tightest turns.  I suspect a larger size might not fit on the spare mount if you have a stock rear bumper.  I wouldn't expect any damage from using them.  The odometer is about 5% off.

235/70R16 just clear and 225/75R16 may or may not just clear depending on the brand on a stock vehicle.
