I dont want super wide mud tires as I will probably mostly do trail driving n what not, but not sinking it in mud holes. I dont want fender flares so something that sits legal without them. also 14 or 15inch wheels? Thanks. 8 Starion SHP, 87 mitsubishi van, , 81 galant g54bt, 78 lancer g54bt, 1965 Mitsubishi Debonair Deluxe 87 swb montero offroad pkg goin g54bt with sr locker 33x12.5 dual bouncy.

But I don't know how 14s would fit over the brake components, etc anyway. 1999 Mitsu Montero - Crappy Weather 1992 Isuzu Pickup - Zombie Apocalypse 2008 Saturn Sky Redline - Nice Weather Re: :Looking for some suggestions on wheels for a swb 1g montero [Re: 87Montero] #999927 06/14/10 06:36 PM Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 7,458 Montero Ranch rxinhed Trail Leader 14s will not clear the front caliper. Swampers are available is 27" and 29" x 14 rims. 31" tires are a good compromise for stock 15" rims and legality. 33x10.5s and 34x10.5s will do, too, but will increase your final drive ratio. 1987 Raider - Roxy 1988 Mighty Max 2.6L Turbo - Pearl 1997 Mountaineer V8 - Freddy 2000 Excursion V10 - Freya Re: :Looking for some suggestions on wheels for a swb 1g montero [Re: rxinhed] #999928 06/14/10 09:10 PM Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 445 portland, or A airbats801 OP Mudrunner have any pictures with 31s? 8 Starion SHP, 87 mitsubishi van, , 81 galant g54bt, 78 lancer g54bt, 1965 Mitsubishi Debonair Deluxe 87 swb montero offroad pkg goin g54bt with sr locker 33x12.5 dual bouncy.

Hub openings and bolt pattern fit perfect, and there's no rubbing anywhere, either up/down or at full lock, and the tires are covered by the stock mud flaps: 1989 Monty SWB, 2.6L w/MT, 15" alloys, 265/75 Dunlop Radial rovers, rear air shocks, Weber 32/36, SQ oil cooler, (SOLD Oct 2012) Southeast VA, USA Re: :Looking for some suggestions on wheels for a swb 1g montero [Re: airbats801] #999931 06/15/10 03:14 AM Joined: May 2010 Posts: 67 Northern, CA monty84 Getting the Wheeling Fever scored some 31x10.5 all terrains on land cruiser 15x7 alloys for 150$ on craigslist. Be patient and look around, you'll find a good deal on tires. If i could do it all over again i would get some 32x11.5's/33x11.5's for my street/trail running because there is plenty of room and i noticed absolutely no difference in driveability after i upgraded to the 31's from stock. I am currently looking for some bigger tires and plan to sell the 31's for the same amount i paid. Quick question, i CAN run 32/33x11.5's on a 7 inch wide rim right?
