Title: Will 15" wheels fit?
Post by: Jluck on July 04, 2011, 03:24:22 PM

I searched but no luck.

Will 15's fit the xl-7's? I think I read once that they will not, but couldn't find the info again. With a upgrade planed for the Audikick I thought about putting the 31's and wheels on to the XL-7.
Thank ya

those rims and tires would look awesome on the XL-7!!!  How much lift would you have to do?

Probably not - it might depend on the year of your XL-7 and the particular rim though.

First generation XL-7 (up to 2006) is essentially a stretched Grand Vitara, and most 15" rims will not clear the front disc calipers on the GV unless they are spaced outwards, which in turn creates other issues with tire rubbing.

!'' wheel spacer will fix that so you can put 15'' on and they look great. Tire Max235 70 15 with no lift.
