Yeah no probs. You'll have to wait a bit though as I haven't got the wheels sorted yet.

It'll all be getting done last week in may!

If I could afford some 35" trepadors I would be fitting them to mine :lol:

33s are about the limit for standard Suzuki axles unless you don't mind changing CVs and shafts on a regular basis :lol:

33s are as far as my drive train will let it go. Like Scott says bearings and shafts take a real hammering on the bigger tyres. Even on 33s the next mod i plan is full float rear. Just waiting a while to see what RW comes up with in his kit.

When you start going even bigger your looking at full axle relocations or some serious body chopping (again)! I'm keeping my eye out for Daihatsu or Yota axles, just incase.

There is also the cost of going bigger. On 31s the 1300 is good with the rocklobster. I'm going to 33s and a 1600 so i expect performance to be similar. If i start going bigger all my geaing will be to cock again.

I'm only doing greenlaning at the moment. Haven't been to any pay n plays yet this year. Looking at some sites there are limitations on tyre size and tread. I'm trying to build it as a good all rounder. 33s seem to fit that. Only thing i maybe should have done was YJs or RUF and either YJs or CJs on the back.
