I have 32/11.50/15r BFG T/A KO tires on my '99 4runner. My question is, car I fit them on a 16" rim since I want to go with bigger rims to do the tundra brake upgrade but the tires are fairly new. I just don't know what it'll do to a T/A tire or any tire. I know slimmer tires on a wider rim is called "stretching" from my s14 and bmw.

 

15 inch tires would be . . . difficult . . . to put on a 16 inch rim.

 

See I never heard this question ever asked and I never asked it so........

 

If you, or anyone you know, do try that pleeease get it on video.

 

will do.

 

Why would you do such a heinous thing to a offroad vehicle? Leaving the flanges exposed.

 

I want bigger rims for a tundra brake upgrade but my tires are at 85-90% tread. And hey, I'm only askin', before I go off and drop a pretty penny on 33s when by some chance there's other options.

 

Nope nope nope nope. Maybe you can sell the old ones, or wait for your TBU?

 

Ya, it looks like I might need to hit up old C-list on this one. Really hoped there were other ways. Only reason I'm in a hurry is my brakes are trashed.

 

If nobody asked questions nothing would be invented, things would never change, new ways of doing things wouldn't happen. On this one, though, you're stuck. Good luck finding a cheaper solution for your tires and enjoy your TBU. You're probably already on it, but don't forget to make sure the rear brakes are properly adjusted while you're at it.

 

I would just try to acquire some take-off wheels from a 4Runner or something with 16"+ wheels and tires that will fit. Install your brakes and then later after you recoup $ from your old tire setup you go buy new tires.

 

Lotsa lube will help..............


J/K, don't do it. Be afraid....
