Newb Tire Question - Stock R50

[Miner]

Okay so we might be looking at a stock 1997 R50 tonight as a winter driver. Only thing I know at this point is it needs tires, so the newb (to R50) question comes out, "What is the biggest tire I can fit under a stock R50?"

Realistically I only want to fit a 31x10.5R15 and I think that is possible, and was confirmed in a Google search.

Any input...on topic input...is welcome.

Looks like it's possible: http://npora.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=19867&st=0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I dare you to join NPORA and ask, they love that question.

I even tried a search here before asking. There are so many hits for tire that it omits the word.

Scanned the thread, it looks like it's possible. Might have to trim a little rust off.

....and now you have me looking at 2" AC coil kits and 3.75" backspacing wheels.

Probably already got your answer, but I've got 31x10.5x15 Wrangler Territories on mine, stock.

[Simon]

Yep, 31's will fit just fine.

If you're looking for a good 31" tire for winter use, the Goodyear Wrangler Territory (CT only) and the good year wrangler Dura-trac are excellent tires.

If you want to try some out Josh, I have my 31's on 15s in the backyard, I think that era pathy and X have same bolts?

Ya gotta go 32's.Stuff em in there.Get a lift.

[Bow_Tied]

FWIW stock X tires just fit on our R50, I think they are close to 31s...

Ya gotta go 32's.Stuff em in there.Get a lift.

Or 33's... its doable with the AC lift... and yes, you should ask that on NPORA, hahahhahaa...

[Miner]

Thanks everyone...if we ever do go the R50 route we know what to look for.
