Terrano II Tyres

I know they are rare, but surely there is some one out there with some info?

I run 30x9.5 R15's. The speedo with the standard tyres is out, but with 30" tyres, it is spot on.
Yoou would probably get away with 31's, but 32" would probably rub at full lock.

Thanks Hoyks,

So I will need the lift for the 32's.

Any other comments on the car regarding issues, good or bad points. It would be appreciated.

I don’t know if the lift will be enough as the tyres will probably scrub on full lock and may also scrub if the rear is at full articulation. Probably the best way would be to find an understanding mate that would let you borrow some wheels and try them. They have the same offset as Jackeroos and the older Pajeros if that is any help.

hi,

I've got a T II, and looked into this issue a few months ago. I fitted a 32 inch 10.5 old tyre onto the 15 inch rim. It would've probably cleared the front low edge of the mudguard, as the tyre moves inwards, if I had removed the plastic mudflap and sledgehammered the mudguard itself a bit, using brute force.

Mine has more than stock wheel travel built into the back suspension, and the 32 was just a few millimetres shy of the bodywork on full lock up: that was without releasing the swaybar disconnectors.

But that's how it was in my case anyway. Power loss even with 31's is quite noticeable, and for slow work it idles along a bit too fast in first low for my liking.

A good test to measure this is to drive in first high slightly uphill at around 2500 rpm, then quickly lifting your foot off the accelerator and let it slow down to idle speed (around 750) and keep going in first never touching the clutch or the accelerator. If it ever hesitates to collect itself in the process, your torque is way down due to running tyres that are too tall
