9.5 X 27 or 10.5 X 27 ??
« on: April 09, 2008, 02:36:30 PM »
Maybe some one here knows..

Vehicle is 90 Tracker 2 door.  Old man emu springs and shocks, they give around 1.5 to 2 inches lift.

8 inch Centerline wheels.  15 inch wheel by the way..

Can I get away without the 10.5s rubbing??   Anyone running a 27 X 9.5 or 10.5 on 8 inch rims??

Thanks, Dennis

What are you worried about them rubbing? I don't think you have anything to worry about, even though there is a lot of width, you have a smaller diameter.

dennis from oregon
i don't know if this will help, but i was trying to run 31x10.5's on 8" rims w/2" suspension+1 1/8 body lifts and rubbed inside rear up front(minor hammering).
i went back to 7" rims and have better clearance.
mabe 29's will fit.
'89 kick w/little motor, still got pieces of jeff's pucks, stan's sticks into 4.24:1 tcase, 31x10.5x15's, rear lockrite, kick power steering, some radios(kj6esv), bmw seat, other changes just because. done on the cheap.

Its my GFs tracker, I dont want to get too crazy with it.  It sees plenty of pavement too.  She dosnt want me going any higher in lift, yet wants as aggressive a tire as possible..

So Im trying to figure out what I can get under there without alot of work.  Hopefully no work.  Retubbing inner wells is a bitch...

The 27s are right at the same diameter as the 205 75 R15s, the 29s are of course a bit taller.  She wants wide, I dont want to do a bunch of work..

Can anyone tell me their experience with 29s on 8 inch rims??  Or 27s??
