G day,I'm chasing advice on whether I can fit 33 inch tyres to my 99 MK Triton it currently has 31x10.5x15.
Cheers.

The 31in tyres are2in over size already,it may be 1in top and bottom higher But that is another 7in in circumference and it will hite the inner gaurds and will probably stall when you take off , very dangerous in traffic and the lights.

Bill O,
I'd be inclined to go for 265/75R/16, they are slighly taller than the 31x10.5x15, & much more available if you need to replace them in remote areas!
Very hard to get either 10.5" or 33" tyres out here.
Depend on where you are travelling.

There must be a way to do it,they'll fit on the back no worries[its a tray back not a wellbody] but I've been lead to believe that you have to go to 11.5 wide to fit 33's but they'll rub on the inside at the front. Has anyone done it to a 99 triton???
Cheers.
