Moosen Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Found some 16" steel six lugs. and am doing a 2 inch lift. Would they work. its the right bolt pattern and good offset. But what kinda tire would I need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wentz912 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hint: One that says 16R at the end. You're a big kid, do the math and figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well think about it, you know of plenty of people on there that have done a 2" lift with 13, 14, and 15 inch wheels right? Find the tire sizes that have been running and turn it into a 16 inch wheel size. Simple math kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stubies Subie Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 This works well for comparing tire sizes: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) These will work, but you will need a 2 or 3" lift, and some trimming. They have an overall diameter or 28", but is probably closer to 27.4" - as the specs are never accurate and every manufacture will differ slightly. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=All-Terrain+T%2FA+KO&sidewall=Raised%20White%20Letters&partnum=17R6ATAKORWLV2&tab=Sizes These will also work, they have an Overall Diameter of 27", and are closer to 26.7" IIRC. They are also cheaper then the BFGs. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=General&tireModel=Grabber+AT+2&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=165TR6GRAT2&tab=Sizes My 27x8.5 Grabber AT2 is listed as a 27" tire, but is about 26.5" (Tad shorter then the Bighorns) Edited May 23, 2012 by TheLoyale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
