stinkydogfilms Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 On a stock 86 Brat with no lift How wide and how tall of tires can I go with on the 14 inch alloy pugs without rubbing? Both questions for 15 alloy pugs? Thank you, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadabob Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I was able to fit 195/75/14 BFG's that "barely" rub the back inside of the wheel wheel with the front suspension adjusted all the way up, and just a "light" trim of the front lower fender...I think they measure out to just over 26" in height mounted on the rims. Maybe that will give you an idea of the "max" you might be able to do. If you want to avoid any chance of rubbing, 185/70/14 might be a safer bet imho. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Stock-sized Peugeot tires on 15" rims rubbed on my stock-ride height '84 wagon in the front on full lock or on a hard compression while driving. No idea about 14"s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadabob Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) I should probably clarify...my rubbing issue only occurs rarely when turning the wheel based on how I'm sitting. So under normal driving I don't have issue at all, but sharp turns (parking sometimes) or off-road I will sometimes catch that little lip that runs down the middle section on the back area of the wheel well. Its pretty minimal, but it definately happens. The plastic has frayed a bit Again, hope that helps for the 14" tire sizes anyways Edited May 21, 2012 by Shadabob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
